Thread regarding Wells Fargo & Co. layoffs

@ad nice try. HR doesn't "write up" anyone, manager does.

@cn I got a call this week, so yours may be coming

@gd or both.

If this is true, then it’s confirmation that either

a) This policy definitely is just meant to drive attrition by making us miserable

b) Upper management is a bunch of id--ts who have no clue what they’re doing.

I don’t buy it. I’ve worked here long enough to know that the data prob isn’t reliable. I was remote for years before Covid. I’m gonna continue to coffee badge until someone reprimands me. Which is probably many months away.

I live close enough to double coffee badge 8hrs apart, see where that gets me.

No one else on my team works in my location, can't handle the open floor plan, dirty low quality equipment, and overhearing 6 teams calls going on at the same time. My guess is it ends up being such a cluster they back off and give managers back control of their teams in 6 months.

So far this is all huff and puff. I am actively FAing around waiting to FO. Waiting to see an inkling of enforcement. I did RTO for 3-4 hours for a bit a long while back. Gave that isht up for the less-than-coffee-badge process.

Make no mistake, I am absolutely expecting to get caught and I am going against the rules. I simply DGAF and I don’t expect to be severenced, I expect to be Fired.

@OP you win the prize for most helpful RTO post ever.

It's an average, so you're better off not going in at all if you can't do 8.

Tell me you have no experience with bucking ERs "recommendations" without telling me you have no experience bucking ERs recommendations.

@ad, you didn’t get “written up by HR”: HR does not write people up. If a manager calls saying they want to put someone on a corrective action, HR consults with them on whether it is significant enough for a write-up and if so, what the manager should include in it, so your manager, NOT “HR” wanted you written up.

@a8 based on what I was told, no. 24/4= an average of 6 hours a day in office. You get no extra credit for the extra day, they divide by the actual days worked,not the minimum required. Basically they've set up the metric to disincent doing anything but 3 days a week, 8 full hours a day.

My manager was pretty contemptuous of the exec decision making on this (as much as he could be in an open meeting, anyway). He said they tried very hard to make a case for just requiring 24 hours a week in office, regardless of how that's spread across the week,but it was shot down.

@ad You got "written up by HR" without a verbal warning first?

This is very true. I live 5 mins from work and was going 5 days a week for a couple of hours. Got written up by HR for staying in the office less than 4 hours per day. 🚩🤦‍♀️

@a8 they don’t care how many days you come.

Each day has to be 8 hours or more.

If you come 1 single day for 8 hours , you are in compliant of hours in office but will flag you for3 days RTO.

if you come 7 days a week each 6 hours, you are not compliant of 8 hours per day, but you pass the 3 days RTO.

But what about if you did four 6 hour days? Wouldn’t the average be the same as three 8 hour days?

My productivity has tanked. The office is a horrible place to get any work done. The unassigned seating means every time you sit down you have to change the chair, move the monitors, look for missing cables. Once your logged in you find the monitors have to be tweaked, 1 2. Then 20 min in, you hear the guy over doing a meeting with his desk raised and you lose focus. 10 min later your hunting for your phone to put some password in from some MS App on the phone. You then get a meeting invite from Manger 1 of 3 you report to. next you get a meeting invite from their manager for another hour. This place fking su-ks ba--s.

I’m badging as I walk in and I’m badging as I walk out to make sure I get my full eight. I’m not fing around with this d-mb s. Just go into the office and literally do the job you’re getting paid to do. I’m done with this as the most important topic in the office.
