After working from home for two years, we are being “encouraged” to return to the office. Most of us see no point in returning to the office and suffering through long commutes again. I expect it to get ugly.

What about you?

    I work in tech and the CIO convinced the CEO to allow the IT department to work remotely full-time forever because we’d lose already hard-to-retain talent, but all the other departments are required to come back into the office.

      IMHO, you should still go on strike as you never know when the tide turns and right now you could use your temporary bargaining power to help your less fortunate colleagues (and likely also your future self).

      Our company took the same approach. Tech was able to demonstrate better productivity by staying remote. It’s good to have the data for the business case.
