It doesn't help that the people mandating return to office are working from home when they demand it.
Previously our office was 2/3 WFH/office hybrid, which everyone interpreted as "2 days from home regardless of how long week was." They recently put their foot down and said it's actually 3 days in the office no matter how long the week is...but also all managers have to be in the office 5 days.
So my personal experience contradicts your claim. Do you have any evidence to back it up?
Every single all hands I've been in since return to work was a thing. ;)
I can't make any sense of this. If your argument is that it sometimes happens, I would be surprised if it were untrue. But your claim implied that it's common, rather than just your personal experience.
There was a fun video that got a lot of public views from WebMD in the last ~week. Wherein some of the execs appeared to be mandating RTO from a green screen of an office.
Just the biggest example that comes immediately to mind.
I would need to know more because what if they were currently all out of the office and they were mandating everyone, including themselves, go back in? It was the same thing when my company announced it, we were all at home and the head of my division, also at home, had a meeting where he, from home, told us all that we would be returning to the office.
Now he's back in the office 5 days a week and we're all 3 days.
