‘Zombie Offices’ Spell Trouble for Some Banks - The New York Times
(www.nytimes.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Yeah, I get the socializing aspect and it hasn't been bad coming in. I've been wfh for the past like 4 years so it's nice to put on actual clothes instead of wearing joggers and t-shirts every day lol. You're lucky you're only required to come in one day a week. We have to come in 3 days (eventually we'll be monitored to make sure we come in 3 days) but at least we can pick the 3 days every week.
On the plus side, we have assigned cubes (no hotel cubes thankfully!) and since I was part of the first small group to come in, I was able to change cubes.
However, I still think it's BS that companies are forcing the back to work crap with such strict boundaries.
I know, I got very lucky with just one day in the office. And that is so important to me that I don't even consider looking at other jobs right now. I will stay here for at least another year, probably even longer. Just because of that super nice single office day per week.
Every other job ad I see have "50% in office".
