Stop trying to frame remote workers as lazy

Trying to determine how much of a con Dell is

Just want to work at a fair and equitable company
Dell is not a fair and equitable company. Let’s take the new RTO policies. I’m hybrid. No problem. I’m tracked though and penalized if I don’t come in 39 days a quarter. Ok no problem. However if you’re “on-site” you aren’t tracked. If you... — read more
