I work remotely and my team is doing an onsite across the country and asking people to travel in the morning and then leave the following afternoon. This would involve a minimum of 12+ hours of travel for me in 2 days. Would you go?

No, that doesn't sound like something I'd want to subject myself to. Traveling and attending the onsite thing make for very long days. How much could anyone get out of that? It would be exhausting. Whoever is planning the logistics of that needs to reconsider, to be honest.

I gave that same feedback. They are trying to save money on hotel rooms.

What does it entail and would mileage be reimbursed.

like

Yes travel would be covered

Honestly, no. If it’s not required and you honestly don’t feel it in your gut to go, I wouldn’t go.

like

They haven’t specifically said it is required - they just asked for a headcount of who can go.

I would go and take control of my travel itinerary as long as I’m there on time. If it’s a nice place to visit would you want to extend your stay?

like

Extension would be at my expense and I would rather not be away from my family.

If you were hired as full remote then no. They are breaking the offer letter by doing that which is a legal document.

like

They changed the terms of remote work a year or so ago. So anyone hired as fully remote is now expected to attend onsites a few times a year but I have been able to get out of them so far.

Ok

I know a lot about medical feel

Honestly, what would be the purpose? Doesn’t sound productive, economical or convenient.

My concerns exactly!

It sounds like a lot of work to me in regards to travel time and wouldn't it be more productive to do a Zoom meeting instead and by groups . 12 hours total travel time to me is ridiculous.

Absolutely!

This sounds very interesting yes i would be good with this

NO

How can they change the terms of remote work after you've already signed your contract?

Update - they cancelled because they realized how unreasonable this was!

that sounds like a lot of traveling in a 12 hour period. I would probably not go. Is it mandatory?

Hi! I’ve been approached by Securonix for a Sales Director role in NA. I know the field and their competitors. The pay is good but I’ve seen a handful of websites with employee rating that is really bad. Each site has roughly 10 reviews but most are negative. Mostly referring to toxic culture and zero work life balance. How true is this in this sales org and the company in general? This is a backfill role after a 3 year tenure for the person who left.
