We call it “forced fun.”

Exactly lol
Not fair. If they are after-hours they should be optional. Unless you're on a work trip or something, teams can go out to lunch or hold mid-day events. Workers have families, evening activities with kids, dinner to make etc. It's unfair to MAKE them go to Top Golf at 8pm
Same as a company forcing you to take leave during festive seasons while deducting it from your annual leave

Every single offsite I get trapped at dinners with my manager who LOVES a 2+ hour dinner and it drives me crazy. Just let me rot in my hotel room like a normal person.
Those dinners are exhausting.

How mandatory is mandatory? Do you need to stay the entire time? If so, thats really tricky for many people, particularly parents.
I don't mind company events. I just enjoy the free food, and there are usually prizes for attending.
