Pros
$1 healthcare is all that is left
Cons
Being given 3-4 weeks to go from the promise of permanent WFH 4 days a week to 100% in office with no explanation. Still no valid, tangible reasons from HR, the CIO or director. Other departments that were promised the same permanent WFH 4 days a week and 1 in office have been given months to prepare, and the majority will be on an A/B schedule. But only one department (QA) has been singled out. I am crushed. I thought I was valued. I thought I would grow with the company and possibly retire from with one day. I haven't been able to break the news to my child, who is so proud of where I work because in the past we were valued and treated well. All other departments that are going back with several months notice have been outraged by the treatment not only of themselves but QA being maliciously targeted. It is worth sharing as well that QA is predominantly female, so it also feels like a target on women and mothers.
