The problem I have personally seen with WFH is some team members just don't work and that's too unfair on those who actually work.

You could say the same thing the other way around. Ending WFH is unfair to the majority of people who used it fairly.

Software Engineer

Yup, for some rotten apples the whole basket will suffer.

Growth And Strategy

I just fear that they don't start calling us 5 days in a week after this. 3 is manageable, 5 is just too damm high

Engineering Manager

That's not very likely. 2-3 days will give them SEZ and similar benefits, which is the main reason for WFO.

Software Developer

Not a supporter of WFO but none of this is new. Until 2020, everyone was used to working from office even 5 days a week. Nobody was complaining then.

No that's not correct. Many companies had policies where people used to take 1 wfh a week.  However, WFH policy became normal after COVID.

Personally I oppose wfh. Everybody knows Indian companies are over staffed. With wfh, most people just sleep and watch tv. They get paid for literally sleeping.  
 Even in office they won't have any work, atleast people won't get paid for sleeping.

Consultant

At this rate not sure how many companies will continue WFH.

He was previously the biggest proponent of WFH. But he recently said this: 

Our early analysis of performance data suggests that engineers who either joined Meta in-person and then transferred to remote or remained in-person performed better on average than people who joined remotely. This analysis also shows that engineers earlier in their career perform better on average when they work in-person with teammates at least three days a week

Looks like most companies will kill WFH long term 🤕

This is absolutely meme material!! They declared that 75% of employees will work from home by 2025, and before even 2025, they reverted that and now claiming everyone to come to office all 5 days!! I mean not even Hybrid, but all 5 days!! News mentioning recent report of asking employees to come all 5 days-

TCS- From 75% to 0%, that was pretty fast!

Can't fault Milind Lakkad.  He has a new boss.

TCS ends WFH, employees to come to office 5 days/wk from Oct

I'm a 2023 grad but I've worked in VC/HFT/GSoC/startups

I'm so fed up with the WFO culture. What do you even get by getting employees in office?

What's the point? I'm an engineer, I can write code from anywhere on the planet with internet and laptop.

Been looking for a role since August, while having a solid dev ex yet all these fools are WFO that reduces half the number of companies I want to work for.

Any suggestions or am I being a fool?

RANT: I HATE WFO

Employees doing WFH since COVID are rare species

Companies have started posting bad things about wfh. Stuff like cultural integration is not achieved in this model. I call it bullshit. Asking employees work from the office is the easiest way to control attrition. COVID WFH saw record attrition , all thanks to remote work. Models are faster becoming business centric than employee centric , which is good , but competent employees must be given a chance to support their families by remote work.

Goodbye wfh

Security Engineer

I have been at a company since 2.6 yrs as a founding engineer (joined here as a fresher). I am a graduate from IIT Delhi. I am paid well (50 LPA cash + decent stocks). The work culture of where I am is pretty amazing (5-6 hrs work, 5 days a week), WFH. 
Since I joined when the company was growing, I am  well respected. I would also go in length to say that  I don't expect the culture to be this good anywhere else. However it has been pretty boring lately, the work is very monotonous ( I am a backend engineer with pretty decent technical skills). I think I have little opportunity to grow here. 
What should I do ? 

PS: I got interview calls from various startups but most of them are just matching my salary but after doing some research I see that they are demanding lots of work (12 hrs, sometimes weekends included)

No WFH

Founder

I am 26 now. And started my career in 2018 when i was 21, and from my first day till now I am doing a wfh. Initially it felt good as you get lots of personal time, no travel time and expenses. And then in covid while people where panicking switching to wfh, I was already adapt to it very well. But lately I have now started seeing some negative  impacts of it.
1- Social life is at stake as I went to study outside my home town and almost lost all my connections here.
2- No personal interaction with people on higher position than you as that helps a lot in ones upbringing.
3- Following same life style for years and years.
4- Poor physical health and mental health being in a room for 8 hours of work, 8 hours of sleep and 2-4 hours more depending on other tasks.

Adding to it now i feel it makes more sense having a office job which makes you feel more lively and a part of society.

Are there very less roles in finance which offer WFH/Hybrid options or am I not searching in the right place? Big 4s were offering WFH but not sure till how long will they continue.

TCS completely ends WFH. Will others follow?

I have been on a permanent wfh role since covid. Yes, been 2+ years since I stepped into an office. I stay alone and have little expenses but also 0 social life. Friends are all spread out. Not on any dating app because its exhausting. Can someone just talk about any impacts on their personal life from work life? Does anyone here feel a void too? I’d love to connect.

WFH = 0 Social Life

I have been working remotely and honestly, I don't want to go to office ever (at least that's what I feel right now) 
  
 I don't want to become besties with my coworkers, and I stay with family so I'm very happy spending all my time with my favourite people in the world! I also have the option of traveling and have decided to take an out of Delhi trip every 2 months at least 
  
 I might be biased, because my parents and immediate family are professionals as well and have home offices, so all my life, I've had the kind of atmosphere where offices don't play a huge role, so I'm happy! 
  
 But yes, I suppose I do get the socialising aspect, it becomes harder to make friends as one grows older, especially when all your school/college friends have office jobs 🙃🙃
