    I would love to have a real take from one of these managers/bosses what their brain-wiring is to make them double down on the single worst idea out there.

    It’s fascinating (ofc soul crushing too), what kind of humans need that. Why? It’s crazy. Maybe they don’t have the faintest idea of what is supposed to happen in a team, what productivity really is, what even work really is, and they are scared to death that they can be called out, and thus doubles down on any power they can grab.

    Or those kind of positions attract soulless people without empathy.

    I’m really curious about how bad it is (I lived through it) and how it is able to stay in place.

      Previous company not only did rto but also did the whole open concept garbage. I lucked into one of the best jobs of my career around that time and have not looked back (full remote, some on site for physical hardware but nothing at any sort of cadence)
