Refusing to promote? I had to leave my employer entirely because I didn't want to work from an office where none of my team was.

This is definitely a stressor in my current job. Fortunately I have a couple coworkers from before acquisition knocking around so there's at least some folks knocking around the office providing some social benefit, if not actual productivity boosts.

If you want social benefits, go to a bar. Work time is for working.

Yeah. I quit as after WFH 200 miles away from my office for 3 years after COVID lockdown I was expected to come in 3 days a week. They were perfectly happy with me working from another office 100 miles away - our call centre.

What exact benefits growth or knowledge wise do I get from there?
