Sounds like a change of employer is in order.
Really wish I didnt need to but this seals the deal. Time to update the resume.
Was a great company too, been here almost 3 years. ๐ข
I personally believe that this is what some of these employers want, including my own. They want to reduce headcount without paying severance or unemployment.
In many states, being forced back to the office after working from home for a long period allows you to collect unemployment if you quit on those grounds. Check your state's requirements. IIRC it has to be demonstrable to be a significant burden but it can count as constructive dismissal.
Unfortunately, most don't understand the system, don't know their rights, and won't pursue it.
Is California one of them?
