[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Young employees (new grads) hate WFH. [/quote]

No they don't. That's just something micromanaging boomers in worthless middle management positions say without any evidence to support their claims.

Younger workers have also never done commutes for 10-20 years yet and don't have kids.  Let's hear their opinions when they get closer to 40 and have wasted thousands of hours of their lives sitting in traffic or taking public transportation just to get to work. [/quote]

My 22 year old daughter moved to Boston by her office for her job. They promised RTO but boomers keep pushing it back. She plans on quitting next year if no RT0. [b]How can she learn sitting in her tiny rental by herself? [/b][/quote]

The same as if she were in the office.  Really.  She should volunteer for work, ask for more work, attend meetings, schedule follow-up meetings to ask Qs since she is new, etc.  It should not be any different.  The world is not moving away from virtual so someone like your daughter needs to learn how to use technology to get what she needs out of her job.  Someone who can’t message someone on Teams to ask if she can help with something isn’t necessarily going to be able to stop by someone’s office and ask the same question.  [/quote]

In her case as a Junior Junior person she is assigned to one boss. Her and one other young new hire. Actually other is part time intern to go full time in May when he graduates. They live in three different states. It is apparent her boss has no childcare and also has a second job. Her boss is online maybe 1-2 hours a day tops. She is actually doing 100 percent of her bosses job. And having intern help out. There is nothing to learn. She is not ratting out her boss. It is scary she is doing 6-7 hours a work a day.

Without RTO hard to interact people she does not work with and network. Her boss will milk this.
