()Allowances ? You mean don't ask them for more money, even though those apps are making money. How is this a good business idea? I mean for Reddit. ---------------- ()Moderators are not forced to work for free. If they do, they are doing this willingly and if they choose to quit, nobody is blaming them. ---------------- ()If original reddit app doesn't make accommodations for handicapped people, it is neither the duty of the 3rd party apps to provide them nor to enforce them. It is just a fringe angle reddit opponents are bringing forward. It is not why this ordeal got so out of proportion. ---------------- ()... we won't make our app accessible, we'll give permission to do free labor for us if you want, but don't you dare try to get paid for it. ... Although it may not be the wisest idea, the owners of the walled garden can say this and it is up to those non-compensated moderators to stay or leave. It has nothing to do with the 3rd party apps ---------------- (*)After all, is said and done, reddit wants more money out of the pot. So does the 3rd party app developers. It is like a Mexican standoff. And I can guarantee you, first party to blink will not be reddit.30:T4d4,They want you in the office because

a) they are thinking that you are slacking off when you are working remotely. This might be true or not.

b) they are unable to quantify your work and decide if you are successful or not, which is an indication of unfit management. By forcing you to go the office, they can justify their own existence, claiming they are managing "their" people.

In my 25+ years working at US companies, I encounter the latter case with managers, who came straight out of the army, doing noting but but barking orders at their subordinates all day long. They were under the impression that corporate America was managed the same way. I personally put a couple of them in their places, in those days.

CEO of the company I worked for, straight out of college, one day, gathered up all 120 or so of us, new hires straight from the school and and gave a speech. One thing he said still sits with me: Good managers want to work with people who are smarter than themselves. Others want to work with mediocre or worse people, because they do not want their decisions to be questioned by their subordinates.

The people who want you back in the office are not good managers. They are "the others"31:T494,Last year was my first year having unlimited PTO. The number of PTO days I used was a whopping 6. The year before the last, I had 15 working days of vacation per year and I could use any unused days up until the end of June the next year. So, I could take a 4-5 week vacation time every other year. This was useful as my home is across the Atlantic and visiting for 10 days doesn't really make much sense. This year, my second unlimited PTO year, I want to go back and visit friends. But I am afraid, if I tell them I am gonna be off for 5 weeks, it is not gonna sit well. So I will end up taking 2 weeks off and will work my ass off from half a planet away, for the rest of my visit. In my opinion. unlimited PTO is a ploy for the employers to prevent employees from accruing too much PTO time, which will end up making them either pay for those days or force the employee to take time off, sacrificing productivity. If your HR seems to establish a new policy which looms like it is employee centric, look closely and you will find the hidden agenda, benefitting the company, not the
