WebMD forcing employees back to office. "We aren’t asking or negotiating at this point. We’re informing" (ody.sh)

This leaked today from inside webmd, the most bullshit corpo HR video I think I've ever seen.

To break down the obvious ones:

  • Employees who are obviously either drinking wayyy too much company koolaid or who know that their jobs will end if they aren't in this video
  • An extremely out of touch CEO who wants things back the old way without giving any concrete data proving that it's better beyond conjecture
  • A company with "internet" in the name who literally doesn't understand the concept of the internet
  • Threatening and bullying language to force people back in office.
  • and just a nice touch, the office is of course not near mass transit or anything and requires driving in
  • Did anyone notice they were all on green screen, kinda proving that there was no need for them to be in person?

I don't understand why you even need employees if your entire website is just this weird little game that you can't win or lose and ends with "cancer". It is like the traditional labyrinth, go right or go left or go straight, don't matter. As long as you keep moving you are going to always get to the same spot. There are early 2000s flash games that had more complexity.

I was just casually googling this video and came across this absurdity. I don't dare give them views to find out the answer.

They want people back "for the simple reason" that they work better together. Well, yeah, I'd agree, without a pandemic.

But healthy people work even better.

What hits me about this video is how unprofessional it is. None of these people are people I would want to work with.

I would strangle everyone who appeared in this video.
