They should focus less on where employees work from and more on not letting lethal baby food out the door.
At a time when companies are letting more people work from home, they're forcing their employees back into the office, some of who have had WFH schedules for years? They might as well leave cards saying "WE DON'T TRUST YOU" on everybody's desks come January 2nd.
I had my contract canceled for working from home. I wasn't even in the same building as the rest of the team and everything I did was remote. Meanwhile my Abbott employee counterpart was 100% wfh.
Contractors need to reject Abbott! They have been using you for years. Seems like good hourly pay but your access to health insurance sucks and a day off is no pay! Stand up for yourselves and give them the 1 finger salute!
Will they fire anyone who refuses to come in to the office during a blizzard?
Is the Willis Tower office space empty? Does anybody know? Did they spend all that money renovating and renting the space and nobody went there? Is this why they're making everyone come into the office?
How is making everyone be in the office going to offset the expense from Willis Tower, unless they’re going to force people to commute down there from Lake County or Wisconsin every day? Were there even enough Abbott employees living that close to the city to justify opening a satellite office there to begin with?
Look at you asking all kinds of logical questions, you are a sweet kid.
IMO this will be a wildly unpopular policy and reversed by May.
Nothing makes employees more loyal than taking away their long standing privileges because you feel like it. Everybody knows that. lol
We get how many emails touting the importance of us all all and meanwhile we are collectively treated as misfits. Benefits reduced or removed, everyone punished for the bad behavior of the few, and miserly pay increases year after year. Add the insult of having new hires brought in at multiple grade levels higher than legacy employees but remember the motto we are stronger together. If I was not experiencing it you would think it was BS.
Executives make bad decisions, company suffers for those decisions, executives shift the blame to and take it out on their employees. A tale as old as time.
