Reply to comment by HighOnGoofballs in I Would Love to Have Enough Time and Money to Go to an Office to Work All Day - Perhaps Steven Rattner and the executives complaining to him about their remote employees could lend me a hand (or $50,000 more a year). by speckz

Got sucked into a job where they said it was a couple days a week if people were in the office, but my team is overseas so I will essentially be remote.

Now they flipped on us and require everyone do 5 days regardless of where their team is. My guess is they want engineers to quit so they can explain why they missed their garbage targets.

So anyways, I've been interviewing a lot.

Or they are hiring overseas. My company realized we can crush targets remotely...so now they decided they can rapidly expand in Brazil and India without the cost. My team is one of the only engineering teams in the entire company that hasn't been hit with this yet.

With that said, there ARE benefits from this policy - we have more support during on call hours.
