I know RTO is being pushed heavily but I read a piece recently that talked about how some companies are only being strict about the policy to the so-called 'low performers' of the company and the star performers are being exempt from the mandate. I think it's pretty unfair because not everyone gets the chance to 'exceed' in their career with an equal chance... simply because of what they're stuck doing in a company as compared to others. What are your thoughts on this? Do you face this at work?

What IS sad is that you could have Googled the story in five seconds. But instead you spent DAYS coming back here constantly with the same snarky attitude that you claim to dislike

I an not as bothered about this. Before Covid, it was common for people with proven performance and the ability to work independently to be given perks like being allowed to work from home or hybrid. I view that as just a version of that, "we will trust you to WFH because you have proven you can do it."

What concerns me more is companies who allow Leadership to WFT while demanding RTO for the rest of the staff. My previous company began mandating RTO, but our entire C and E suite all work remotely, and the rule didn't apply to them. I've heard the same from other people/companies as well. It is incredibly tone deaf for a CEO to justify RTO as good for the company while they work from home.

So I have been made an offer by a company I like but it’s pretty similar to my current package (I also like where I am). The recruiter is pretty intense and is pitting me against another candidate but says I’m the number one choice and is asking me for a number to say yes “but not too high or the team will look at the other candidate”
I’m close to send them to get stuffed. I’m also awaiting a promo and interview feedback from Google. Any advice?
