Pros

It used to be flexibility and work life balance. But now, I don’t know

Cons

Do you like sitting in a gray cube for no reason. Then this is the right place for you. We just had to return to the office 2 days a week and every one is miserable. The mood is at an all time low, esp when considering bigwigs don’t have to come in. We worked from home for 5 years and now this.

RTO is either a stealth layoff or the dumbest management move I have ever seen.
