Great company to work for if they can adjust culture around in office emphasis - Anonymous employee Cubic³ Employee Review

There is too much emphasis and compulsion around working from the office often, even for employees with long commutes. This reflects a lack of trust in employees and creates an unspoken expectation around optics, which seems to matter significantly to senior leadership. While a few work-from-home days are allowed, the culture of having to ask for permission feels restrictive. Since I joined, I have been repeatedly told not to take work-from-home days on Mondays and Fridays due to concerns about people misusing them to extend weekends. From all this, there is little confidence that any request for additional work from days would be honoured, even when all work deliverables are being met, and there is genuine difficulty in travelling to the office often. Overall, it feels less like a modern corporate environment and more like a high school with disciplinary rules, which feels very out of place in 2025.
