RTOs are stealth layoffs - they don't backfire, they work entirely as intended.
RTO, like AI, is advertised as the magic tool to make employees more productive. In both cases, those claims have been proven dubious at best.
And in both cases, people got laid off because of it.
Businesses are just trying to fire people. They have no interest in AI, they don't care where you work, they just want a reason to fire you.
