My manager suggested that a company wide announcement related to changes to current RTO policy to come. No suggestion as to whether it would be
More flexible than the current 3/2 model or more time back in office.
Has anyone else heard anything on this?
Reporting was quarterly and will now be monthly. While the expectation is 3 days, that DOES include PTO and holidays counted as in office days. Also, the target is those not complying. Consistently doing 2 days in office isn't likely to get you in any trouble at this stage. I'm not sure about a company announcement.
I'm not letting a Johnny come lately pencil necked jerk in an ivory tower in NYC chase me off. F those clowns and their stupid decisions. They won't be here much longer and I don't care what they think.
OP your boss may be a bit behind on things. there is now a published page on TW about in-office expectations (popped up recently) making it super-clear that you can be fired. They aren't going to send around some big announcement. it's been communicated thru layers of mgt.
In 2022 it was optional for managers to enforce/create consequences.
In 2023 it's not optional. if you are a manager and your team isn't coming in - it'll be taken out on your (manager's) performance.
The page in TW also says that it's not any one specific week, but adherence over time. There is latitude, just as there was with 5 days in-office, for people to have weeks where they don't meet the three days due to circumstances that are agreed to between the employee and the manager. (e.g. sick WFH, catastrophic weather, etc)
The reporting shows rolling four weeks. (I'm a manager and i'm getting it regularly). It is day by day and to the individual name, as well as summarized stats.
Go read teamworks everyone. you have been considered officially notified with that page!
Everything said above is purely pub talk.
“More flexible!” LOL 😝
We've been told reporting is weekly and you better tell your manager ASAP if you are going to deviate from your 3 days for the week.
If this is true, doubt anything will be announced until after the CEO townhall next week. He doesn't like employees to bother him about RTO as has been stated before.
Ed level here, not heard that but if any changes come it will be 5 days and STFU because you blew it with your whining about 3 days or did not comply. People need to accept it or move on. Note I don't like it either having been remote for years before this current mgt.
Makes my new decision to jump ship way easier here. Full time remote, more pay, less bs
Same expectation as always… you’re just going to be held accountable for your immature, ridiculous behavior. Btw, 3 days/week is already flexible.
Fu-k RTO and the leadership. #NeverRTO
Has there been ANY carrots???
3 days/week in office and it will be part of your 2023 goals so they can ding you on your performance review if you don’t comply.
Today we heard 5 days a week in office is what Charlie wants
I heard it's 12 days a month instead of 3 days a week.
It averages out to be the same but gives you more flexibility.
(This rumor is at best 50% reliable.)
Yes, five days in office coming soon. Stop, collaborate and listen, Charlie is back with a brand new invention.
If there's a change, it definitely won't be more flexible.
I would bet it'll talk about more sticks and less carrots
