Getting Around RTO

What to stop RTO? Here’s how.

If you are less than 30 miles from a hub, tell your move champion and manager to move you to a hub more than 30 miles from your home. Rationale to be with the teams, clients outside of your immediate team. Once approved, the milage from your home to the new hub is recalculated to be more than 30 miles, making you remote as stated in the policy.

Change your address in Workday and tell your manager you moved before RTO went into effect and “forgot” to update. This will protect you from remote to hybrid changes.

Anonymously file ethics hotline reports against the leadership and direct managers enforcing RTO for bullying, intimidation, gender discrimination, favoritism or unfair, unequal treatment. If you know others that are getting exceptions or not obligated to RTO, makes the complaints stronger. Managers will back off as they are afraid of the ethics office.

I was hired as remote. Would have not accepted offer at current pay if it wasn’t remote because I factor in commute as part of my compensation. 2 hours of unpaid commute was not what my job offer said

"Or, just go to work as you were hired to do."

Cute. What's your clever retort to those who were hired to work 100% remote from the start?

Here are two ways to get around RTO. We had 3 layoffs, two were refusing to RTO and the other was a poor performer.

You don't need permission to move, but if you move that doesn't change your office-based status. Everyone has already been mapped and is stuck with their classification.

If you plan move outside of a commutable distance you must work with your manager and HR first, and there certainly are no guarantees that you will be retained. I would assume the chances are well under 50%, but it really depends on how irreplaceable you are.

Wait? Since when does anyone need permission from the bank to move?

So moving and telling them you forgot to update it prior to RTO will NOT work. They’ll say that you needed to obtain permission prior to moving and that since you didn’t, you’re still mandatory to RTO. OP clearly doesn’t know what they’re talking about.

There are no other hubs in the area. There is only one in downtown area so how can you ask to be assigned to another hub? You make no sense.
