I have just lost all respect and desire to work for Google...

Google is accelerating partial reopening of offices and **putting limits on future of remote work**

Both hypocritical or draconian? Sounds like it's being run by an old man now...

Wonder if employees will revolt... Jump ship to the other FANG companies... Guess I'll win either way unless they all goto Facebook...

It's the stupid middle managers who feel useless (and they are) when they can't walk along a floor populated with their underlings. Also, they have no idea what their underlings are doing so that they also don't know whether they get their work done.

Given that this comes from the "head of people operations", i.e. HR which is SJW infested, it's likely also a sneaky move to crack down on thought diversity because conservatives are less likely to be willing to live in Crazyfornia.

Faang companies are hell.

@iiii Microsoft and others it seems are doing partial/flex rather than having everyone going back all the time. I guess actually asking what everyone wants and realizing most work can be done at home, if the person remains just as productive or even more.

It's hilarious how one of the biggest manufacturers of Home-Office software advocates against Home-Offices

As I see it now, maybe jump ship from even wanting to work for FAANG entirely. If you already do, that's great, but I wouldn't want to miss other great opportunities.

@Tonnoman0909 oh just realized I left out that part or accidentally deleted it. Yes GSuite, Meet...

@donuts Google is as well, 3 days in the office 2 from home.

The return they mention in the article is for that, not full 5 days in the office

@YADU but the 14day limit for remote contradicts that?

@donuts

You can have 14 days of fully remote work on top of the normal flexible week.

It even mentioned the 3 day in the office week in the article

I have plenty of other reasons not to work for them. Politics, morals, culture, ...

middle managers don't even care to close the netflix tab before meeting....

I don't see why you would like to work there even before now. FANG companies are worst to work for IMO.
