Our CEO just told us that our RTO has been a “rousing success for our company culture…” umm our company wide survey would scream the opposite. Just sayin’ don’t piss on me and tell me it’s raining.

What your CEO means is that a lot of people quit and they didn't need to give any of them a severance. Everyone left has been folded like laundry and will do anything to keep their checks clearing including work tons of unpaid overtime and the jobs of three (or more) people. Meanwhile, the company will pretend to be looking for new hires to "alleviate the sudden increase in work" by posting jobs that they'll never fill.

The success IS there, you're all just too hung up on the past and can't see the bigger picture at your level. Maybe you should stop being so selfish and think of the poor Board Members who supported the company despite the peanuts worth of dividends they earned prior to RTO. Stop taking PTO during critical business cycles, start hitting your KPIs, and maximize shareholder value. It all starts with YOU. Now to dig into that tibetan crab my friend who owns 3 hedge funds was telling me about 👏🏽

The CEO may not know the true company culture. I work for local government and sometimes the Mayor is waaaaay off with what he thinks our community actually wants, because he is surrounded by people who are telling him that his ideas are solving all of our local issues. His family, friends, and close advisors think he’s fantastic and I think he honestly doesn’t realize the areas in which he’s disconnected from the rest of our community

Is anyone interested in taking over the lease for a top floor 3 bed 2 bath, 1500 SQ ft apartment in a newly built complex in Plaza Midwood? The lease runs through Sept 2023. It's one of the nicest complexes in the city, has close proximity to Uptown, and has excellent amenities (e.g. CrossFit style gym, two pools, dog park, on site complimentary cafe, etc.). My unit has an ideal layout for work from home and a huge patio.

Edit: $3,196/mo including valet trash pickup ($35) and pest control ($4)
