Hey,

Would really appreciate a quick response.

My sibling got an email stating mandatory 5 days work from office since she just came on bench after working on project for 3+ years. And, her wfh request was rejected in the system (unsure if it was auto-reject, rejected by the DM).

Any solution and loopholes to address this issue, and avoid going to the office on all days & simply follow 10 days WFO policy?

Thanks in advance.

Currently I'm not sure of any loopholes as wfh requests that are being approved are for critical medical reasons only which might require prescriptions or such.

This can be neglected for some accounts if management gets approval from HR which again is for very few accounts, which I don't think they can avail since they just came on the bench.

All I can suggest is they can join 10 days from their closest location by booking seats there (also they know that leaves and dc holidays are also counted as wfo)

I haven’t given notice, but expect to do so soon…I don’t think it’s prudent to start a new matter esp. since I know I’m leaving…but I can’t turn down work with a straight face (especially because my hours are in “checked out” mode)…
