Comment on WB Games owner Skydance introducing five-day in-office mandate alongside 'Voluntary Buyout Program'

Especially in a creative company like ours, the best ideas come from people in the same room, sharing perspectives, challenging one another and solving problems.
Strong disagree. That might be the best way to avoid the worst idea, but it’s not the best way for creative people to have an original vision.
Swat down a bad idea and it either lives or dies on merit. Swat down an interesting creative vision, and it often becomes secret/internal/personal.

The part that everyone knows is being said between the lines with a return to office mandate is that they want their employees to quit so that they don’t have to pay severance. With this voluntary buyout thing to go along with it, they’re quite loudly saying that they want their employees to quit.

Might be to try and avoid a WARN Act notice too.
