60-hours a week, plus commuting time? Probably just a requirement for salaried workers.

I'm surprised the article was laser focused on return to the office, but didn't mention anything about the even worse 60-hour-a-week work requirement (plus commute time) that they are asking for.

They actually want people to quit so they don’t have to pay severance. They are trying to get ahead of the coming layoffs

Silent quiting at the office is also ok.
