That's frustrating though. Just put those folk on notice, fire them if they dont improve, or fire their managers if they cant fix the problem. baby, bathwater, etc.
They are very aggressively doing just what you describe, too. It's not an either-or type of scenario.
WFH may very well be a trap for companies to identify their "least loyal" employees. I've heard in business that if you're not at the table you're not involved. I can see a future where the same will be said about WFH: If you're not at the office you're not involved, a team player, or someone to keep.
I don't want to be kept. Even if they wanted to keep me, they most likely wouldn't make it anyway.
Paywall blocking the article for me, but... I considered changing jobs to FB about a year ago. The recruiter was saying that they're remote-first and plan to stay that way.
Well, a year ago they were also hiring. It's entirely possible that plans changed.
Maybe this means the Metaverse is being abandoned.

Recruiters are there to get you hired, not to tell the truth. I imagine the messaging internally for recruiting teams has changed drastically. Is there anyone who still wants to work at facebook at this point? The company that is laying off thousands, that has wasted billions on a metaverse that no one wants, not to mention one that has helped rip apart the fabric of society? And now doesn’t want you working from hom…
As long as they pay top dollar, many people would. For many, works is not a question of morals, principles, or company values.

As I understand it, he hydrofoils over to the SF office 3 days/week. #DisruptByExample
Why lie? 3700 km / 80 kph > 50h one way You understand he spends 100h commuting every week?
This isn't as nefarious as everyone makes it out to be. There are articles that state Meta has hard data that people who start as Remote workers at Meta significantly underperform those that don't. In light of that data, they're pausing the experiment and working to understand what the data is saying.
Until they do so, I remain deeply skeptical. It’s all too easy to engineer measurements or interpret data to support the outcomes you already want.
If the data is truly so revealing, show it to the world.

As an AI language model, I do not have the ability to determine the tone or intent behind the comment without additional context. However, based on the information presented in the comment, it is possible that it could be intended as a joke or a sarcastic remark, as traveling by hydrofoil from Hawaii to San Francisco three days a week would be a highly impractical and unlikely mode of transportation. It is also worth…
