Companies forcing workers to come back to the office are creating a 'massive disruption' in their lives, workplace experts say

• RTO mandates are a "disruption" to remote workers' lives because they made big changes during COVID.
• Many remote workers moved cities, bought houses, and invested in home offices during the pandemic.
• Workers could begin to feel resentful to previously flexible employers, future-of-work expert Dan Schawbel told BI.

Companies have been touting the benefits of returning to the office, including teamwork and collaboration, but these mandates are actually causing a "massive disruption" in workers' lives, a workplace expert said.
