RTO was never about “collaboration” or “innovation.” It was always the cheapest layoff strategy in the book. Microsoft, Google, AT&T — they all bragged about how amazing remote work was… until suddenly it wasn’t. Now it’s mandatory office days, creepy tracking systems, and memos claiming it’s “not about reducing headcount.” Sure, totally believable. The truth is simple: RTO isn’t about productivity, it’s about getting people to quit without paying severance and keeping you in the office just long enough to replace you with AI.
