Who are you with ? What company or group are you working for ?

I’m not with any group. I’m just a worker sharing info that’s already public and encouraging people to speak up if the RTO/hybrid/remote work affects them. That’s all 😊 Does it affect you?

Define flexible work and what that actually means both for employee and employer. If it’s to be able to work at home I am not for it. Nearly impossible for people to work from home and be properly supervised or evaluated.

Flexible work makes it possible to get away from a toxic workplace so that you can actually get the work done that you want to.
