Potential employer wants me to do multiple interviews and a FOUR HOUR online assessment test.

Between that and not disclosing the salary range it’s no wonder why the job is open.

Anyone with a ‘hybrid’ work schedule just refuse to go into the office?

I was hired in June by a company who told me I'd have to go into the office 1 day a week. I work in a small satellite office, while corporate headquarters are on the East coast. Corporate policy is 3 days a week in office. I was fine with the 1 day a week. Recently, corporate started pulling 'badge swipes' to see who wasn't coming in at least 3 days a week, so now we are being forced in 3 days a week. I've seen a lot of posts on this sub about similar things happening where people are being forced back into the office. I was thinking about just still coming in 1 day a week and ignoring protocol and seeing how it plays out. Has anyone else went this route? How did it work out?

Anyone else paying for healthcare but can’t afford to even go

I just want a lil feedback maybe some dialog on the subject. I recall in America the first year they charged you for not having healthcare even if you didn't go.

Company Hiring Someone from Outside for the Role and Not Me

There’s been many shifts in my department with the person that got promoted to the position opened up to a manager after 17 years in the same role. Position opened up for a senior level but instead of moving me to it, they are looking to hire an outside person. I have already been doing 90% of duties of that senior role but clearly something else triggered them to hire outsider. I had 2 offers in the past 3 months with nearly double the pay closer to $250k with bonuses which my company doesn’t have, but I just loved my team and what I do (other companies would be similar roles) and decided to stay. Now really looking back and any forward offers – thinking I will strongly consider it now as clearly my value is not that important.

They could pay $13/hr and still be true to their word.

Old employer (black text) wanted a copy of paperwork that I (blue text) filed with the state to move my pension. This is the email thread after multiple requests for the info. I contacted the state retirement system who also thought the request was a breach of privacy and inappropriate.
