Bad pto system, increased policy tightening

Meeting frequency in engineering has increased with daily standups and end-of-day check-ins on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The company frequently changes its remote work policies, adding restrictions and requiring upper management approval for working outside of 2 timezones. New grads are committed to a 2-year program and are required to be in the office 4 days a week, limiting flexibility. PTO policy has been lowered to a fixed 15 days. Remote work hours are strictly aligned with the core hours of the team's hub office, reducing the flexibility often associated with remote work. The company offers a $20K sign-on bonus, but it comes with a 2-year clawback policy that requires full repayment if an employee leaves within the first two years.
