First week of RTO for many companies in the local area has meant the capital beltway has been completely fucked. I am so fucking glad the moment RTO was announced I worked with my manager to move me to a building that’s against traffic and much closer to me than a guaranteed 75+ min drive each way.
Speaking of which our RTO has been ridic. Almost half the company now seems to have exceptions except people who build products. I am one of them. Like what’s my incentive to not find a exception enabled role and move when hiring opens so I don’t have pressure of RTO? Would have been nice if it wasn’t implemented like this and everyone was treated as same.
