Prior to this it was one day a week and very weakly enforced (basically not at all). Sounds like the higher ups are getting a lot more forceful and I expect they'll increase it to three days before the end of the year. They haven't straight up said they'll be pulling badge swipes to check but I wouldn't be surprised if they start.
Might just ignore it and start looking for another job lmao, I live 40 minutes from the office (was fully remote when I was hired) and I don't want to do that drive twice a week in heavy traffic, in the winter. I wouldn't be surprised if they're also using this as a way to reduce headcount without having to pay unemployment. Hiring basically stopped more than a year ago and while they haven't done any layoffs in the area I work in yet for the past six months I've had the feeling they kinda want to.

My company has floated coming back in 2-3 days a week starting in the new year, but my boss, his boss, AND his boss have already came out said they have no interest or time in tracking who comes in and when so seems like it's off the table for us for at least a little while longer. I don't even mind the drive, but having to pay downtown parking rates just to make some C-level exec happy is bullshit.
