No. It's important to lockstep in, without any thought given to any other approaches.

"They are doing it, so are we" is the very best analysis and insight we are capable of.

“Who cares what they are doing?”

Most importantly, leadership and the BOD. RTO onky started being implemented here after Andy Jassy started it at Amazon. It is important to keep up with industry standards.

Who cares what they are doing? Who cares if the guy in the car next to you is digging for gold in his left nostril? Doesn’t mean you have to pick and flick, too. Just sayin’. Give us a better reason than “it’s becoming an industry standard.”

Don’t you all remember when Google was featured as an innovative employer for having nap pods, free unlimited soda, on site doctors, free bus service to work (on their own plush buses) and other perks?
Until those college interns got older, had families, and wanted to balance their lives. Now it sounds terrible.

Everybody lives the idea of daycare at the office, until they find out what happened 30 years ago that stopped that trend.
Now AT&T is considering having a doc office in Dallas HQ so you can just go downstairs instead of going home sick.

I am old enough to remember the “Green pills” that the old AT&T used to give employees who were feeling sick. They were caffeine and aspirin I think.

We are trending to how work was 40 years ago - by men whose wives can stay home and run the house, and who are forgetting they have a diverse workforce who wants more out of life, wants to be as close to home as they can get so they can spend less commute time and more living time.

Look at every CEO who has stood by this. Look at their family life. Many of them barely know their kids - and except the youngest child.

Even if it were an industry standard, which it’s not, then we should be 3 days and not 5

“Wrong company, bud”

T is literally referenced in the article as an RTO leader. LOL

@a1 what industry? just every industry? Microsoft and AT&T aren't in same industry. Don't you dare call us a technology company!

You keep posting this in threads. Just say "RTO is the standard."
