You can't blame the management if WFH actually reduces productivity. It's up to the people and culture to make sure that WFH produces equal or more value than WFO.
Many times I have seen people refusing to turn on camera in calls citing network / wardrobe issues. The bare minimum you can do in WFH is to turn on camera so that there is a face to whom you are talking to.
WFH is "more power to you". With power comes responsibility.
Why do you need to see my face?
Do not underestimate the power of personal relationships brother! I have learned that you can't get things done by escalations but you can by knowing people.

His points are not wrong, if there are very few people in office, those who actually come to office, tend to be less productive and try to end the day earlier (specially during holiday season) + the delays in response from team members who are wfh enhances the feeling of ‘why the fuck am I working if these people aren’t’ (please note that going to office in the mind also feels like another work task even if it is not directly related to the business)
If there is a real need of team working from office together then yes, people should come to office else WFH option should always be open imo
But isn't there a retrospective way to look at it? If there were no WFH, work will have stopped 100% here. You cannot blame the holidays here. A police constable has it more difficult that way of either do the duty on diwali or stay with family. WFH enables both albeit at lesser productivity. You cannot behaviour of the people by making the holiday as "optional"
😂😂😂 what these so called leaders don’t understand is that brother if you make our festive leaves optional, expect us to work weekends, holidays at no comp off, extra pay, people WILL take WFH and fck off. Everyone needs a life outside of work and zomato as a company fails to respect that. Poora time hustle hustle bologe toh sath mein paisa bhi do hustle ka. Everyday I thank my stars for moving out from this setup where they don’t understand or respect such a basic need as personal time.
