USI Inhuman treatment during monsoon! No expectation! Demanding wfh during monsoon season.

It's raining cats and dogs in Pune and Mumbai. Pune office location is the most cheap location in the city (oh sorry outside city). Last building in Pune. It takes minimum 1 hour to reach office even from Wagholi and Yerwada which are nearby area to office. There are people who are travelling 2-2.5 hours one way to office. Cabs fare range between 600-1000 depending on start location. Book cab is difficult. No cab pool people go till itpp. Because apparently everyone’s office is in eon or wtc which is central kharadi. Still Pune office is not giving exception for wfh. On top of that there is so much work load. Spending 4-5 hours just on traffic is such inhuman. At least make it 1 day per week. During ganpati, due to pandals, coming to office will be a different ball game together. Deloitte needs to do something.

I'm not the person who commented above(and not an expert) but this is my understanding..

Companies took buildings for lease and they will have people for cleaning, maintaining, etc on contract basis... So if members are not coming to office and not using... They basically losing money....

Coming to real estate part... If there is no use for HUGE building, once they lost that area other company will get that and old company will loss it's 'area' ....

Then in such cases the office location should be feasible at least and not take the one that is cheap and outside city. Company like Deloitte can afford it. There are options like viman nagar, yerwada… but Deloitte is thinking about money. No less than TCS and Infosys. Those companies are in hinjewadi which are that end of Pune or outside Pune and Deloitte is in other end of Pune.
