Sounds like some pathetic manager is starting to realize that the only way he can get friends is by paying them to be with him and now that isn’t even enough so he is having to threaten their job as well.

I quit my last job because management wanted us back into the office at first one, then two, then three days a week - all so that we had to commute into an office pointlessly and then either spend the entire day on Teams calls, or just sit at desks writing exactly the same code that we would have at home.
When I accepted my new role, I made very sure that my contract of employment was explicitly set up for full time remote work only.

My old boss actually thought it was a waste of time bringing everyone back as well. This was a big enterprise, all the RTO orders were coming down from the C suite and senior leadership.

Same, dude. I’d commute for an hour each way to sit at a desk alone, and video conference with people all around the country. After a couple months of that I was very open to new offers, and eventually pursued one. Had they not pulled that shit I would have outright rejected the offers. I was the only person left on the team that knew how everything worked. Shortly after I left the entire team fell apart.
