Pros

Pay and benefits are good. I really enjoy the work that I do and the people that I work with. The flexible time off policy is implemented and well respected by leadership. I always get the time off that I ask for and am encouraged to take time off when I need it.

Cons

Leadership doesn't listen to employees unless we align and affirm their way of thinking. Most people prefer to WFH, but leadership still requires us to come into the office 3 days, without any good reason given.

Advice to Management

Listen to people's desire to work from home. Will you be humble and listen to your employees, even if it challenges what you think is right? Just because you're at the top doesn't mean you have a better perspective. You just have a different perspective.

What lessons did we learn through COVID that justify the sacrifices of our friends and family who are no longer with us? You might have learned how much you love the office, but we learned how we don't need to sit in traffic 10 hours a week.

We learned that we can live a life where we are being more productive than ever, yet still having more time to spend with our loved ones. We learned that we can live and work anywhere we want and get the most out of life.

Your return to office mandate robs us of so much and gives us very little in return.
