What are some dystopian policies at your work place?
Half day salary cut for every 3 days you're late is pretty freakin messed up. Curious to know what other ancient capatilist policies do corporates have in place to exploit all of us?

Damn this is light. This is applicable in my current work0lace too.
In my previous workplace, if we were late more than 45 minutes a month, it was half a day salary per offense. They subtracted literally 1/3 of people's pay for the month in such trumped up shit . Also 100INR fine for not bringing ID card. Watchman used to delay people trying to sign in a minute before the enter deadline because HR had given him some money to do so .
They currently suffer attrition rates greater than 50% with entire product team gone and replaced by 10k/m interns. Lol

@porter, they check your attendance by making sure your laptop is connected to company wifi, thrice a day.
If not then your manager is notified. Let's see what action they take in future!

How's porter doing otherwise from a business perspective? And are there othwr random culture issues as well? asking since I saw an opening on linkedin, was thinking to explore @randomjocke

Techie: Build a raspberry pi VPN box put that on company premises and use it for location spoofing.
Mintos person: start LC grinding and switch company

Employees aren’t allowed to use the office wifi.
Don’t know why but nobody is allowed to use the wifi.
Apart from that the usual you come a minute late your manager calls you and annoys you.
You come 15 mins late the AD acts like a gorilla and starts screaming. Nobody is supposed to fall sick unless they can provide a medical certificate and inform the manager 24 hours prior. Don’t know how that works.
Come on time. Stay post work hours. Get abused publicly. Oh boy what a place to work.

Let's name and shame such losers

How is SFDC btw?

I love it. Great pay, Great perks, Great work and Great colleagues if you chose your team smartly. Freedom to choose your WLB. Very Good WLB would give you equivalently slow career progression, growth and promos.

I know a company where if you'll be late by 15 mins you'll get marked late and half day attendance would be given and they had a time tracking software to track incoming time but no extra credit or anything if you stay late, and this is with permanent WFO in place.
I also know a scenario where the person was asked to show flight tickets for the leaves he took.
Seed stage company in Gurgaon.

Stay away.

Same in Antino Labs, they used Desktime and Zimyo :')

Was asked not to travel back home early during Christmas break by manager even though they were about to travel that same week
