I wasn't, I left before they had the chance. I was told it wasn't going to be enforced by several leaders after I threatened to quit.

For context - my original remote status was a bit of happenstance through a transfer. It started before COVID but got looped up in the big RTO push.

The critical mistake? My 'new' team didn't write down their not-pandemic-related-WFH-ness, apparently. The clowns in charge decided our disparate team had a magical worldwide office to return to.

Not satisfied in the uncertainty with the "no punishments expected" promise... I found a whole new job. Something explicitly remote.

The main thing I want to express/leave is this: consider whatever your circumstance right now a coin toss. There will be more.
