It can't just be who think it's incredibly hard to find remote gigs these days. WFH is officially dead in my eyes, and all companies want to bring back the in-office culture.. How and why did we go from remote work being the default to it being a rarity that you have to fight for?

The real estate needs to be justified. That’s the only thing I’m coming up with because the cost of having employees in the building has to be astronomical.

Yep and everything in the city that office workers support - cafes, public transport, tolls, petrol, office clothes and shoes, makeup, lunchtime shopping, hotels for f2f events … society needs people to spend money on these things or else cities wither and die.

You think that because it is. Remote jobs have all but dried up thanks to RTO mandates. It happened because companies wanted to exert more control over employees and the pandemic ending (or people no longer caring about it) gave them the opportunity to.

I hardly EVER see remote roles anymore. Everything I see is hybrid at best but most jobs seem to be back fully in the office.

It's not just you. The numbers have surely gone down and I think the general trend is RTO.

It’s hard to trust the partners/leadership when they want us to return to office as being better when we increase offshoring? Also, the pressure on billable hours when all that really matters is how much our fixed labor costs vs. how much we can bill (which is usually fixed fee or at least a range) and the fixed labor costs of offshoring is significantly cheaper so the hours don’t matter. Am I mistaken by this viewpoint?

It’s been more than 10 days and multiple follow ups but still no response. I don’t think I was rude while talking to the HR, I just told my current salary and asked for min. that no. Did i miss the chance ?
