My office spent 3 years during the pandemic telling us that the future of work was here and we’d probably never work in an office again.

We got rid of our office leases, sold off property, and then the CEO received some stern letters from business associations and bam! Just like that, all mention of the future of work and telework were deleted off our sites and everyone was forced to show up in office “2-3 times per week”.

Anyone who was given permission to move across the country were ordered to move back home (within 30 days) or face immediate termination.

Those that weren’t fired and didn’t quit are now crammed into random offices around the country to take MS Teams calls with their teammates. The whole org is falling apart.
