Dating app Grindr loses nearly half its staff after trying to force RTO

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Many of these workers were hired remotely and were required to relocate to new “hub” cities — New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Washington D.C.

“Rather than recognize the union, the company issued a new return-to-office policy requiring staff to relocate or quit,” the CWA said in a statement.

The dispute highlights the tensions between employers and workers over return-to-office policies more than three years after the Covid-19 pandemic forced millions of white-collar employees to work remotely.

Seventy-one percent of employers that are mandating their on-site work policy reported difficulty retaining workers, according to the survey.

Last month, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy told employees they were free to disagree with the company’s policy requiring them to be in the office at least three days a week.

Meta, meanwhile, told employees that by September 5 those already assigned to an office must come in three days a week, and managers would track attendance, according to a report from Business Insider.
