What's larger: -23% or +76%

Need a bit of math help here - What's larger: -23% or +76%?

For example, if one company grew in value about 76% and the other grew negative 23% in value, who grew more? To make it a bit easier, you chose some fixed time fame and let's keep it in the industry, so let's make tmobile be 76 and att be -23...

Finally, once I understand what's larger, I'd like to see which factors cause numbers to differ. For example, if tmobile has a hybrid WFH system, and att is having all employees come be in the office all the time, would someone analyzing the numbers difference, be able to establish some kind of correlation here.

thank you!

WFH is back

Just wanted to share something I heard from a pretty reliable source they’re bringing back Work From Home for Mondays because of the latest CES results. Apparently leadership took one look at the numbers and feedback and decided to hit the pause button on the full RTO push again.

It kind of makes sense when you think about it. The Chevron Way is supposed to be all about our people being the most valuable asset, building trust, integrity, and taking care of each other while getting results the right way. Forcing everyone back into the office when morale is already low and people are burned out doesn’t exactly line up with that. All the reorgs, constant changes, and pressure have been wearing folks down. Those survey comments probably reflected a lot of frustration and distrust that leadership can’t just ignore forever.

From what I’m hearing, some teams are already being told quietly to plan on WFH Mondays from August.

Has anyone else heard the same? Is your manager or skip level saying anything, or are they still acting like everything’s great? Would be nice if they actually addressed the real issues instead of throwing out occasional WFH days as a quick fix.

Onsite Tracking

Considering taking a position with the company but am reading about their strict onsite policy. Is it tracked by how many days you are on site or how many hours? How is it addressed if you have an offsite meeting or had to work from home part of your day (such as a coworker asking you to join an early or late meeting before or after you are at the office)?

Layoff Rumors for this week

Heard a rumor that there will be layoffs this Friday, and we’ll be asked to WFH that day. I didn’t put a whole ton of stock into it, but I was sent a photo of all of the CX and MX leadership going into a 2.5hr meeting today and it was set up by the HR generalist. Safe to say I’m officially anxious and not feeling good. My source is as an associate and a leader in the a space at BTD.

Anyone else heard anything concrete?

found a job

was laid off in January but finally landed a new gig this week, now I can cash out the remaining few months of my severance. definitely a tough job market. Spent the last 4 months applying for jobs and upskilling my tech stack. I applied for over 350 jobs, about 30% got thanks but no thanks emails, 67% completely ghosted, and the remainder varying forms of interviews. while the new job pays a little less than wf, but has a lot of career upside, great benefits, and in office requirements are much less stringent. Definitely a different job market, but there are jobs out there. try not to get discouraged

Been quiet

I wish I knew who I could rant to but I'm way too careful about sharing my work-place political views. RTO has totally uprooted my life from cost of childcare, time wasted on commute, routine, and even my work itself. Talk about being more efficient, eh? Literally cannot get the same amount of work done if im being pulled in 12 different directions each day just to make sure im doing my work from one spot and not another i.e my home. What a super cool and awesome thing this all is. The only thing that motivates me more than getting yelled at for "non-compliance" is SPITE. You want me to quit? No thanks. However, with my flexibility now gone, there goes yours as well. Taking calls after hours? No. 110% effort? Try 50. It's been said before but dear lord what are they thinking? THOUSANDS of employees with FOUR MONTHS time to get read for the dreaded RTO yet ZERO MF GUIDELINES?

The guidelines are vague by design, because they want us to assume what the rules are. I dont want to tell others what to do but please dont make this easy on them. Most of our positions were originally based around a hybrid schedule from the get-go.

Government Mandated WFH Soon?

Due to the Iran war and the mess at the Straight of Hormuz, I've heard that the USA could reach an oil/gas/diesel lack of supply crisis by as early as this July. I could see the federal government issuing stay at home orders or at minimum work from home mandates to attempt to significantly reduce demand.

Would mean all of this RTO tracking mess would end up being for nothing.

Any thoughts?

WFH Accommodations

Besides medical accommodations, does WF give case by case exceptions for other reasons to be able to WFH? For example, person no longer in strategic location but their experience is needed to close out a time sensitive project. I know some who work remote but I am afraid to ask them their reason , though the two who volunteered their reason it was medical related each time

Billesdon v Wells Fargo Federal Appeal or-l arguments heard yesterday in District 4

Or-l arguments were finally heard in district 4 (Charlotte) regarding Wells Fargo's appeal of the Billesdon case. Here is the audio file - https://www.ca4.uscourts.gov/OAarchive/mp3/25-1495-20260505.mp3

Its about 1 hour long and well worth listening to.

The 3 judge panel seemed perplexed why they would let go someone who brought into the bank over 60M in revenue, and the timing of his addition to layoff list was very suspect.

If you are unfamiliar with the case, here is the $22,000,000 jury decision handed down in Charlotte NC against Wells Fargo in 2025: https://law.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/north-carolina/ncwdce/3:2023cv00160/111371/78/
and
https://www.pacermonitor.com/public/case/57946975/Christopher_Billesdon_v_Wells_Fargo_Securities,_LLC

Its the same pattern -a disabled Wells Fargo employee, needed wfh accommodation, bank said no, then fired him for asking.

If you fit the same pattern, know that you have a very limited timeline to file a charge against the company - seek legal counsel asap

This Was Never About Productivity

WFH already proved it works. We did it for years. Output didn’t drop, and in most cases it actually improved. Turns out it’s the person doing the work that matters, not the chair they’re sitting in.

The irony is we sell global connectivity, yet don’t trust our own employees to work remotely on the very networks we provide. It’s a “do as I say, not as I do” situation, and everyone sees it.

If the goal were cost and efficiency, the answer is obvious… let people work from home. Less real estate, no commute drain, same or better output.

Instead, we’re spending more to force people into buildings to do the same work… on a screen.

So what’s the real objective here?

Cheaper parking at an expense!

Started back to work and thought I’d take advantage of $5 North Shore Parking with a shuttle to and from downtown Pittsburgh. Because I don’t have the extra money to spend like most of us. What a bust. Shuttles weren’t running every 15 to 20 minutes as promised but rather an hour to an hour and a half long. So much for that. Got into the office and the majority of the floor was empty. Why did I bother? No work got done. I’m sure we are going to see productivity plummet. Wasn’t approved to work from home to be with my epileptic child. Job well done, Bill.

Personally they kind of waived this mandate to FT RTO

By being 6 years into this.
Some were hired as hybrid, and yes I know a company can change their business model whenever they want, but it also breeds bad faith and discontent. Many people were hired as hybrid or having spent 6 yrs wfh have built up an at home office. This maneuver shows zero respect for employees this late in the game.
And I think if/when another situation arises it may not work so well by the powers that be making these life altering decisions.
I sure hope they are sympathetic to employees if they need to be working from home if their kids are sick, on school vacation, doctor appts that don’t lend themselves to driving in and back twice there MUST be some flexibility. Seems to me all “US” companies like the visa payroll better and we’re about to see the ugliest side of globalization we’ve ever experienced coupled with the AI job ki-ling revolution

Good times. 🥵
