I was hired at this company during the pandemic. I enjoy the work, I enjoy the people, but the main draw was the generous work from home policy. I started at one day a week in office. I was fine with it since I perform a vital function that does require an in-office presence that could be done in five minutes. In November, I was brought up to two days in office. I wasn't happy about it, but I dealt with it. I was informed today that we will be moving to three days a week in the office.
I've been putting in applications all day.
I refuse to settle for spending the majority of my week in the office for no reason after having experienced what it's like being able to have so much quality time with my husband and our dogs. This probably will not go over well once the general announcement is made to the rest of the company.
