NYC private employer vaccine mandates - what is your company doing?
Curious about what everyone's company is doing in response to this. My CEO leans libertarian and basically lets everyone WFH if they wish, but we're also a small buy-side shop. No shaming, no mandatory return-to-office, no push for the unvaccinated to get the vaccine.
Is your company actively enforcing the mandates or firing people who are still not vaccinated?

Companies would benefit from firing anti-vaxxers. It has been proven they have lower cognitive abilities which leads to their decision making skills clouded by conspiracy theorists on social media. So a vaccine mandate is basically a free chance for them to clear out the dummies.
I've noticed you many times when still a lurker, but never for a positive reason...
It's all dependent on whether you believe these petty tasks are a good predictor of intelligence (IQ tests would fall under this). Reminds me of the silly pymetrics games I took during recruiting where popping a balloon at the right time or spamming the spacebar would be a great indication of whether I would be a qualified analyst or not.
And even if this was the case, are you really taking average level statistics and applying them to individual people?
Haven’t heard anything as of yet. Granted, I haven’t started yet but I was never asked if I was vaccinated even during interviews or after I got an offer. Firm is a CRE brokerage that leans more conservative.
I think as this point it's best to just keep quiet about it. Not your fault for not disclosing.
I am fully vaccinated so not really worried. But I doubt they’ll force anyone to get the shot, boosters or anything like that. Makes me happy they’re not terrified of COVID.
Good on your employer for allowing the choice. My previous (200+ person) bank required an attestation that employees were vaccinated (no booster requirement). Uploading the actual card into the HR software was an option. Current (200 persons) bank is requiring the booster
Wow, that's pretty insane. Boosters are still emergency use only (not FDA full approval) so I'm not sure how this is even legal.
(I'm pro-vaccine btw, just more pro-choice above all else)
Current bank does allow for religious exemption, but not quite sure what that process looks like
My shop is forcing vaccine mandates. But we’re a larger boutique
Seems like we're allowing people to do what they want, but essentially forcing unvaccinated folks to work fully remote. Which means they're getting taken off of interesting and engaging projects (I work in real estate, not finance, it's more hands on) and put on more administrative tasks. Can only imagine that routes for promotions and raises and all that become more fraught as well.
Which is as it should be. If you don't want to get vaccinated, that's fine, but don't complain when your choices and your lack of concern for the health and wellness of your colleagues limits your options from the standpoint of professional advancement.
