FAQ did say at one point as part of the business strategy some roles that were scorecard eligible (meaning roles they can easily measure production and adherence) would remain remote. Since then that FAQ has been removed and there is only a simple blurb indicating that if your manager tells you to work remote then that’s what it is.
I think they tried transparency and then everyone went off their rocker. I get it but some roles were remote before Covid and never went hybrid. So those that complained were mainly in roles that had the temporary accommodation and not roles that are typically remote.
That said, another day without any communication. We are now 1 week from the deadline and I’m scared to even ask for an update. This information is vital to my family because we are making financial decisions that would be impacted by that change so we have to sit on our thumbs while the company holds it over our head all while giving no merit increases.
