2023-05-17T2100H UTC+8: The Toxic Corporate Environment

May 17, 2023

This morning a recruiter agent contacted me for one of the software engineering positions I have applied to. The client is located on the financial business district in Manila. The ad for the position states work from home but is actually a temporary one and is on hybrid setup and the client is actually looking forward to a 100% onsite work.

I just wonder what does the corporate world is thinking considering that we are in a new era already where the viruses in the likes of SARS-CoV-2 has imposed an irreversible change to the society. I mean can they guarantee safety from SARS-CoV-2 infection?

Won't be going back to the toxic world of working onsite 100%. It has been proven that productivity does exist in permanent work from home setup.
