I wish my company cared less about “optics” and just valued good work. Literally had some one tell me it’s bad optics to WFH right now. It’s not like there’s a pandemic or anything 🙄

Uhhh, I think it’s bad optics *not* to WFH right now. Where are you based?

Chicago, so it’s a major city too 😓

We are not essential workers. It’s bad optics if after a year of successful WFH stories across all verticals, someone is still seeing such growing/adjustment pains that they think in person is mandatory for good work. Tell that chucklehead to get with the times or get left behind

While I appreciate their honesty, I feel like they consider me severely indebted to them that they hired me mid pandemic and “allow” me to work from home.

HSBC Results are out HSBC’s pre-tax profits almost doubled to $2.7bn in the final quarter of 2021 as the UK lender’s commercial banking revenues were buoyed by growth in credit and lending. The London-based bank said in an earnings statement on Tuesday that full-year pre-tax profits increased 115 per cent to $18.9bn, just missing forecasts of $19.1bn. Reflection of these results on employees : Single digit hikes even for top performers. Same scene continues from past 3 years now. HSBC
