I was forced back to the office and I’m doing my best to comply, even though the commute is barely manageable. From how RTO was rolled out and is being managed, it feels like leadership hoped people affected would be the first to bail. But most of the folks I share space with are hanging on to their jobs for dear life. Not surprising, given the job market. Looks like the RTO-driven attrition plan isn’t really working out the way they wanted. I don’t know the numbers, but that’s how it seems to me.

"Forced" implies a lack of choice.
RTO-4 not implemented until 2026? are y’all just now doing 3 days or what ?
In my org feels like the ones who left were some of the best and lucked out finding new jobs. The rest of us are just left here complying with RTO knowing the job market stinks. But for sure they got some attrition but also lost good people (not that leadership noticed or cares). We are all disposable.
Next is a reduction in benefits and annual pay adjustments. It’ll be framed as doing what’s best for the clients.
Know lots who went into spite mode. Every commute is F off to Walt or Rick.
