What will you do? Relocate or quit? For me, personally, relocating and respecting RTO rules is prohibitively costly, both in financial terms and with respect to time loss. When I put everything together, it just doesn’t make any sense for me. I will probably quit. Already started looking for another job, and actually have positive experiences with the current job market. I refused two offers bcs I figured something even better could come my way. In any case, I’m in no hurry. What I’m 100% sure of is that I’m not relocating for this company.

I can confirm. I asked for $500 to relocate across the country after the RTO announcement. They said no, so now they’ll spend several thousand to hire my replacement. And I’m an EP.
Question - did you join Fidelity with a remote 100% wfh role and were told you much do the 2 weeks ? Or did you move during wfh and lost the gamble? Just curious. As have been stated in other posts regarding RTO, I can't help but think this is what they want to avoid paying severance. But, like offering a VBO - they will be sorry when talent and competent employees go elsewhere.
Heard that any relocations are paid for entirely by employees.
