A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Job is listed as remote.

During the interview they tell you it only requires 2 days a week in the office. You tell them you don't have a car... they reply there are trains from where you live to where the office is located... you look it up and they're right, it's just a 2 hour commute each way. You start to think "8 hours a week, is like 1.5 hours a day for 5 days, could be worse...". Then you realize their hiring process requires 3 more on-site interviews before even getting an offer.
