    The RTO mandate is being made by management - people with usually 15+ years experience or more.

    They’ve only known office life. It’s the security blanket.

    The people most affected are these RTO mandates are people who have only known hybrid or WFH, people with <6 years work experience.

    This is a culture clash. Mgmt can’t manage without seeing people actually working.

    Numerous studies have shown no significant productivity improvement by working in the office.

      It’s not an age thing. It’s a power thing. I’ve worked in offices for 30 years and they’re shit places that empower bullshit managers.

    That’s the point. Workers with morale get self-respect, and then they start thinking of themselves as deserving a life. Gotta crush that down if you want to exploit them to the max.
