I have yet to see that personally

I've never seen it, but super curious now about whether anyone has any stories. Following this thread to see what crops up. Should be interesting!

Usually it’s like SS at LB where they jump ship often and win awards.

Hi Folks,
I am working for NetApp Client, Bangalore however My base Location is Hyderabad, and I have heard from a couple of NetApp Employees that they are planning to resume offices by May.
My questions are:
1. If UST is planning to bring employees back to office?
2. If they call will I be asked to relocate to Bangalore as my client's location is Bangalore or will I be working from Hyderabad only?

PS: My manager has left the organisation and I am the sole person from UST in my project.
