@catstalking when you said that i.e dont have to work 5 days in the office cuz you guys are special, are you sure thats true? Im starting to see that basically EVERYONE is being forced to work in the office now 5 days a week. I even see people who used to work 100% Remote before covid being forced to work in the office 5 days a week…..
yes at first it was a little ambiguous and the in classic UPS fashion
they've made the office policy even more strict than pre-COVID
you must report physically to a building 5 days a week for the entirety of your workday with no exceptions (in the past this was far more ambiguous)
it's a pure loyalty test at this point since the support functions have been stripped down so hard that meaningful physical collaboration with local ops is nearly impossible now
since there is no research whatsoever that shows being in one location vs another improved productivity (without the collaboration aspect), it's just an attempt at attrition
