A theory - the RTO reports have poor data quality because the engineers responsible for building them are deliberately not trying. They’d rather be doing anything else. Who can blame them?

The reports are NOT correct. Its missing days that have been confirmed in office, they are way short on daily hours. If i get terminated over this report and its inaccuracies I can guarantee damn tee there will be a lawsuit. Between badge swipes and time stamps on my work I have the receipts to back up my time in office. Bring it.
Just go to your designated place of work. No need to worry about reports. Magic, huh?
"If I were Mr. Stankey I would not want all these negative people reporting to me."

Well we all should be working on Dallas time.
Seriously whenever I find data in this company where the time zone isn’t recorded, it’s Central time.
Oh so they are Tech Mahindra? Effort is unknown to them.
It is probably something stupid like everything being one timezone.
By the look of these comments and thumbs up thumbs downs confirms we have too many people in our bloated company. If I were Mr. Stankey I would not want all these negative people reporting to me.
Reports aren’t close. For me start times are generally in the ballpark. End times are often 3 hours later. My boss thinks i work 11 hours a day. Guess I should start doing 5 hours as it will look like 8! Absolute mo--ns!!!!
They are deliberately not trying OP?
GTFO. It’s not people not trying, ever. It’s always people reaching the limits of their skills and their lies catching up with them. Offshore works like this: You get 1 skilled resource for every 4 trainee. All are billed or hired as a highly skilled resource and it is the job of their team lead to make sure their junk deliverables at least deliver a semi accurate result.
Look at their code though. Always a $hit show.
The report is a 90% product. It is pretty close to user activity.
“ Now that your bosses have seen the initial data, I am guessing a lot of these "reporting issues" are going to start clearing themselves up. Magically.”
Bingo.
It’s a little off at the start and end, but by and large it’s pretty close to accurate.
Now snuff DEI and voila!
The reports are directionally correct. We have to really enforce our RTO mandates.
OP here. I think that the numbers coming out of the reports are at least correlated with the truth - so the people that show up the worst on the reports are probably the worst offenders. But to trust that they're getting everything right would be like trusting Elon Musk's investigations into Social Security fraud.
They're not "that" bad--
"all the reporting is bogus..." is the mantra of the day...and yes, there are some valid issues that will need to be addressed. But those screaming the loudest about the issues with reporting, somehow also just happen to be those that show non complaint with the mandate. Funny how that works. Anyway, it's going to buy you a little time maybe, but not much.
Now that your bosses have seen the initial data, I am guessing a lot of these "reporting issues" are going to start clearing themselves up. Magically.
That is one theory. My theory is we are lean on Engineers in the USA so they gave the task to Habib in Bangalore and the saying goes - "you get what you pay for".
