[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A liberal WFH policy but everyone was required to send a group email to both your working group and everyone in your office (which in my case had no overlap) every morning to explain where you were working and why. It was so weird. I get letting your direct supervisor know, or at least letting them know if you deviate from a regular schedule. But I would receive 20+ messages daily about where everyone was working, plus I hated having to tell everyone I was WFH when I did it because it was almost always related to a chronic health issue and I hated having to disclose that (or lie) every single time.

I know work FT from home (since pre-Covid) but companies like this that have never been able to figure out accountability around WFH must be a mess right now. Or maybe they finally figured out that you just have to trust your workers and then hold them accountable if they abuse that trust. Anyway, no emails me to tell me where they are working or detailed info about their doctor's visits anymore, and I'm so grateful.[/quote]

Oh, I worked in an office like this - jr staff would email everyone every detail of where they were going, even just a 1 hr dentist appointment. But then the partners would sometimes leave on vacation without telling anyone (including jrs who were in the middle of preparing matters with them!) I just never followed the lead of jr staff and nobody ever said anything to me about it. [/quote]
