I got a follow up call on an application for a "Remote" position. Talked to the recruiter and was told they planned a mandatory return to the office in the next year and the position was only "Remote" until then. Has anyone else see this?

Has been happening often with posts I’ve seen lately. Or they’ll note subject to hybrid as an option as well

Such a stupid game. I wouldn't play with those kids.

I literally had another call after I posted this that did the same thing, though they said they were willing to consider hybrid.

The job posting clearly stated "North America" and "Remote."

With all of the layoffs happening, companies think it’s ok to follow that practice unfortunately

Yes and I respectfully declined to move forward. I prefer fully remote
