it argues there are 3 types of RTO workers:

1. the resistors

typically senior-level employees and high performers, workers who aren’t worried that defying return-to-office rules will yield professional consequences

2. the defectors

Those are the employees who when pushed to return to the office will quit — either on the spot or in the months after R.T.O. rules are put in place. The employees most likely to leave, according to Tsipursky, are those whose skills are in high demand, like artificial-intelligence researchers

3. quiet quitters

They don’t want to go back to the office, but they also don’t feel they can defy the rules outright. Instead, Tsipursky explained, many of these employees express frustration with return-to-office mandates in subtler ways, sometimes by spending their hours in the office avoiding work.
