CEO scolded me in front of my team for joining a meeting virtually and told me to come into the office more frequently. The underlying assumption that my work is not good unless I come in is what drove me away. Especially because it's a hybrid position and my commute sucks. 1 day remote is not hybrid. The interview process led me to believe they were far more flexible than they actually are.

A similar thing just happened at my current hybrid job. My company is owned by a much larger corporation and the only reason it hasn't been fully absorbed is because we're making a lot of money for them. An email was sent out from corporate with the usual RTO talking points (COVID is over, we did great working apart but now we need to all come in to work together because we're better this way) with the due date being early September. Less than an hour went by when a rep from my company sent out a follow up email asking us to ignore the first message because it's only for the parent company. I was halfway done updating my resume when I saw it. I'm guessing there where more than just a few people who sent out some very angry emails to upper management.
