I know this will vary a lot, so hypothetically let’s say you currently WFH/work remotely at least 3 days a week. Your commute to work takes an hour max (door to door) each way. If you were given the choice of a 4 day week working onsite, or a 5 day week WFH (or as many days as you’d like) for the same pay, which would you choose?
“claw back the raises”??
What? How? At least in my country an employer cannot unilaterally worsen a contract for the employee. You don’t have to agree to less pay and they’ll be bound by the original agreement. Sure an employer could “fire and rehire” you, but you also don’t have to agree to the rehiring.
If they do that you’ll get full unemployment, probably some severance and they are instantly a worker short.
