Now, the forced relocation is a totally different thing and that is brutal for those effected.

Within context it's awful, yes, actually. In March'20 when COVID was happening, they sent us home. After a year or so they made it permanent and renamed At Home Agent to something else I forget, and told us we were permanently at home.

People moved. People changed their life around knowing they were working at home. edit: I should add they also allowed high performers who hit 100% of every single metric to move anywhere in Canada and live as far away from their home office as they want, as long as they had quality internet. This is a disgusting about face from soulless creeps.

Productivity went up, people were happy. Sick time went down.

This is a move done purely out of spite to make on shore Canadian reps hate their life even more than they already do. The company saves on real estate, and employees perform worse in office.

telus employs AI to transcribe every. single. word. of every call. If you dont try and sell every single call you will get written up. They have an ai deployed to track your mouse movement every single minute of the day, and write people up if they have enough instances built up of no mouse movement for 2-3 minutes. I've been in those meetings as a shop steward, watching the company drop a 5 day suspension on someone for 2-3 minute mouse breaks they let build up over months.

This is corporation run by nasty people who will step over their own employees to save a nickel. The very existence of the company was predicated on a crown corporation becoming wealthy from no competition and built with tax payer dollars, and now are suddenly private free market lovers. #### them.
