If so, how has that been working out for you? It seems to be a form of reasonable accommodation to me, but if I'm honest I haven't even seen a single physically disabled employee where I work. And if the company can't accommodate something that's more visible and well known, probably they can't be bothered with relatively unknown, non-physical disabilities.

Related, I've been scouring job postings and many also made it a requirement that an employee have "strong" or "excellent" verbal communication, mostly for the purpose of teamwork and relaying info to management (which, to me, doesn't seem to need to be done verbally instead of over emails).
