    Dystopia. Is this really common in the U.S? Both RTO-mandates and this “coffee badging” as a way to get around it? My company in a different country has a policy of 50% WFH, but nobody cares and I sit at home the majority of the days. Here it seems like WFH is here to stay.

      The bigger the company, the more likely it is true. It’s a combination of narcissistic bosses and companies wanting to justify their real-estate purchases. Smaller companies tend to function just like you described instead however.
