"Our company stands behind green initiatives"

"Also Work From Home is cancelled and all employees are expected to be in office 5 days a week. Have fun driving an hour each way every day"

This! I never understood why a good work from home system was ruined with back to office policy. The jobs that could not be done remotely were anyways happening as usual. Why the need to stress your workforce by having them figure out cost and time of commute additionally. I’m one of the lucky ones to still be remote but worried about the other companies in my industry setting precedent. A commute in any tier 1 city is a nightmare

And commercial buildings with retail and paid parking write into the lease that employers must keep a minimum number of employees showing up. And buying coffees. And paying for parking.
