There seems to be a drive worldwide to get people back in the office and the excuses I hear are never very logical. Mid level management you can see are just repeating the party line which never really makes sense. I get some roles should go back into the office more but its never black and white and no one considers the impact to mental health for some people, work life balance and the environment. For me its completely dumb as I work in a different city from most of rhe people I interact at my place of work and my customer. I am being told that it's about culture, rebuilding teams and mentoribg uou ger people. I thought Teams was sold as a collaboration tool, these and other arguments are conveniently forgotten.
