RTO has killed the culture - Anonymous employee Pacific Life Employee Review

Upper management (many of whom are remote) is killing the culture requiring RTO. It's negatively affecting people's mental health and just less productivity overall. Many people were hired to be remote, there was zero talk of having to come back to the office, and the company even promoted remote work. Our numbers have never been better! Now, they have gone back on their word. It's so expensive to live in SoCal and this is like taking a huge pay cut when everything is the most expensive it's ever been, never mind the amount of time people are losing with their families commuting. I wouldn't recommend Pacific Life to anyone until this policy is lifted. The culture is so bad right now and everyone is so burned out.
