So for over a year I’ve had a full time accommodation, which you have to renew every 90 days. This time it took them a month to review and with 2 business days left, they denied giving me a bunch of nonsense reasoning, saying your condition doesn’t matter etc. meanwhile half my team has wfh and one just got approved this week, what the heck?

@sc bingo pretty sure legal knows where they can’t go
If it is a true disability and you have documentation. Call the EEOC.
@OP congratulations
"Managing headcount downward" and "Responsible Growth" mean driving people away without severance at any cost. Great place to work? Not even close.
I thought they were required by law to grant quite a few exemptions. Sounds like the idea is to make life intolerable to reduce numbers, ahead of an expected replacement by AI of quite a few which won't be described as such.
Sounds like a pneumonic plague is next.. feels like the early days of COVID… BOA better consider this
I know some people really have medical reasons to WFH but there’s definitely abuse in the system and it’s frustrating to everyone else who is coming in.
@cj what does meeting halfway look like?
Yeah it has gotten pretty ridiculous and seems dependent on your lob. I had a lob state they could not accommodate, with a Dr's note, when they obviously could. Had to prove the fact they could in order to get them to meet half way. Other LOBs for the same situation gave the employee no problem and honored the accommodation in the same building.
@af yep have had a doctors note this entire time
@OP What is your condition? I assume you have a medical professional supporting your accommodation request?
I'm waiting on mine. Good thing we took all those classes on workplace harassment. No retaliation. Reputational risk...respect for the individual.. sounds good on paper but seem to mean nothing in practice.
