Comment on Gen Z is bringing a whole new vibe to the workplace: anxiety

Comments

Perhaps a better title for this article would be: "Business leaders are bringing a whole new vibe to the workplace: anxiety"

With the popularity of 'hot desking', overbearing micromanagement, unrealistic expectations, and continuous surveillance/activity monitoring.. who can blame people for being stressed / anxious at work?

If employees aren’t expected to come into the office often, hotdesking is a perfectly fine trade off for the people that spend the majority of their time at home.

A lot of offices are doing forced RTO at the same time they are introducing hot desking. So...you need to come in 3-4 days a week now, and no, you won't have your own desk. It is like, come back to the office we miss you! But, well, we don't miss you that much.

I think with hot desking, however, the writing is on the wall that RTO will ultimately fail more often than not. And that ya, these people are eventually going to come in 0-2 days a week, and not the majority 3-4 days a week.
