Anyone put in their resignation recently and we're told you'd have to abide by the 60 days? I can't imagine they'd make me stay. Anyone experience this?

Stupid question, but what is RSR?
I left early last year. Sometime during 2024 I was reclassified into a role that apparently required 60 day notice (no one explained that this was part of the role reclassification). When I gave my notice one day after bonus payout last year I told them I was giving them two weeks, in an at will state, don’t care if they want to try to claw back my RSR. They ended up not doing anything at all. Your mileage may vary.
I put in my notice a few weeks ago as an ED. The 60 days is real and basically a default setting in workday when you submit your resignation. My manager was reasonable though and understood those 60 days would be mostly transition help and coasting. I hear in client facing roles, if you have another job lined up, they will let you serve a non working (“garden”) leave. Anyways it’s just another in a long list of policies that are blindly imposed on everyone with no foresight or reasoning, that any normal person will find a way to weasel out of. Fu-k every consulting firm and Human Resources mo--n who come up this kind of nonsense.
As others have noted it only affects RSRs, your bonus (if you don’t wait until after it hits your account), and whether you’re marked as “no rehire”. I gave 30 days notice and was told about the policy. Like most, I live in an “at will” employment state which means either the employer or employee can terminate the relationship at any time for any reason without prior notice. Last time I checked, corporate policy is not state law. Told them I was aware of the policy change but felt 30 days notice was generous given the law.
In California, you're required to provide 3 days notice. That's state law.
They could actually release you early. Since you are giving notice and assuming you are in a mandatory notice role as far as i know you have to provide but if they don’t need you they can release you
Bank tellers are exempt because there are only a few truly needed now and they can apply for being a guard because they know their particular bank and can perform transactions if there are ever more than 3 customers in line which hasn't happened since 2021
They can't make you do anything. You can resign tomorrow. However, if the notice period isn't met, they can blacklist you and clawback RSRs.
Contract terms vary by Country. I learn that in the U.S there really is no notice period. It works both ways, IBM can take your badge off you and kick you out the same day.

You risk clawback of bonuses and stock awards by doing that.
"Have to" or else what? If they pulled that on me, my notice period would be immediately reduced to a few minutes.
