I am doing well with remote because I'm pathologically introverted and find that being around people is exhausting. I can imagine things being the other way around for extroverts and that is saddening.

Yeah this is the primary disconnect because management is more extroverted and so they hated remote / don't see why some want it.

Honestly the lack of empathy about this topic from top management is extremely disturbing.

Nothing else in my career has ever changed my opinion about a CEO as quickly and drastically as hearing them completely dismiss it as noise, when hundreds of employees explain how negatively forced RTO affects their well-being and productivity.

My "first-order costs only" spreadsheet put RTO at like twenty grand a year. I had no idea.

I started playing around with the idea of how much it costs to have a job based on location and it was interesting to see how different variables changed the final wage and how that played out against a map of the city.
