I've worked at places that allowed many of the flexibilities mentioned.

I sometimes felt that it was more socially acceptable for men and women with kids to use the WFH and leave early flexibilities than it was for those of us who are child-free.

People often "feel" all sorts of rules that aren't real, then modify their behavior based on these unreal rules they've perceived, then harshly judge others for not living in the exact same dreamworld. I'm endlessly amused by it.

yes, it's a double standard. usually the people who make the rules have kids also, so this is how it plays out.

I've also heard that most of those rule making people were at some point children themselves. It's a vicious circle really.

It would be better if it people were encouraged to not reveal the reason why they want to WFH
