Eventually, you need to RTO (under the Bank's deadlines and hub sites) or you need to quit. If you decide that RTO is not right for you, you are gone. Someone else will then take your job. When will you all finally understand this simple concept ?

I understand the concept about not RTO. When I can't get a medical exception due to severe medical risks for me and my spouse. I fully expect to resign or get fired. The resume is all set. The debt is being down paid down with all the OT they have been offering. It will show how inept the management from BM on down to my department heads are. New nasty Covid-19 variants are here or coming. We have Delta, Lambda and MU now. What's next and how bad will it be? Labor day weekend has just ended how bad will the surge of Covid-19 be in a week or so?
that's a simpleton mind you have OP. This is when you have leverage to do great work and have that flexibility. You simply do not just become a "yes man" like you have become.
@aai+1cGWmJzZ There is an escalation process (that has not been communicated). I was told by insiders that you will get 3 chances to RTO, and if you don't comply you will be let go. Simple as that.
If you stick around and hang in there and watch people bail and quit you may be setting yourself up for a chance to get a hybrid situation? If a group loses 50% of its people will they consider making changes?? Good chance.
My boss told me to stick around for 2-3 months and see what happens after I brought up the RTO issue.
The Bank has been hiring and trimming staff in many ways for decades. Even though you are SO talented, and decide you may leave in protest, the Bank will survive. You're not going to bring the Bank down by turning against the company, or with your veiled protest threats, or not showing up, or not doing your job. The Bank will go on. The new hires you despise may appear inept at the outset, but eventually the good ones will thrive, and make everyone forget about YOU - the once special irreplaceable associate.
OP, imagine that nobody showed up to work. I know it's impossible, but imagine that power of that statement.
Serious question. I am not in the portal and have not received any RTO yet.
For those who have, is this not an invitation to return? Where in the communication has it stated you will lose your job for continuing to WFH right now?
I am already witnessing the desperate hiring of BOA . Many of them aren't qualified for the position or they have high absenteeism since they started. This is really going to be a shlit show for this bank. Furthermore, many of them are just using this company until something else better comes along. BOA just delay RTO or this is going to be a disaster for all of us.
@Jzz
Most of the talented were smart enough to already leave.
I would be very concerned with people forced to return to work, pi---d off because how this was handled, they can turn against the company if they are into the know. Also very concerned with people who had to leave the company because of the same issue.
When talent leaves for hybrid accomodations, higher pay, and upward mobility oppurtunities the cards (and underperforming stock) will fall. When will YOU finally get this?
