I gave another general response, but let's go through the specifics.

I wasn't even sure what a "sandwich leave policy" was, and legitimately thought it was food-related.

...how employees' leave days are calculated when they fall between weekends or public holidays...For example, if a public holiday falls on a Friday and an employee decides to take Thursday and the following Monday off, the weekend days of Saturday and Sunday will also count as leave.

A little weird...but who the fuck takes both days off. I can see one, but not both. I don't see a huge issue with this. Take Thursday off if you want, make it a four day weekend, whatever. Show up on Monday. This isn't hard. Or just have your normal three day weekend. Who the fuck cares?

I've worked retail, but not specifically "office," but...yeah, a specific schedule is a thing. Salary deductions is absurd, though, unless you're habitually showing up later or something. And the mouse tracking thing is absurd nonsense that would make me want to do a Rule 2. I'll give you that one, totally. That's the most egregious of these.

"I wasn't allowed to change my laptop's password..." YOUR laptop, comrade? If your employer has power over your laptop...it wasn't ever your laptop. That's a work computer. You don't get to change that shit.

"Questionable practices." I find it unlikely that your boss was locking you in their office. You could open the door if you want. I almost guarantee it. If not, yeah...Rule 2 again. What can I say, I'm feeling Rule2y this evening. But yeah, that smells of bullshit. Doors don't lock from the inside. Someone is being gay and/or a woman. Turn the fucking door handle, bitch.

"Mental peace." Bye, bitch.

I don't see a huge issue with this.

They thought it was a huge issue because they did extra work to implement it.

The easiest way to implement it is that whatever day you take off that comes out of your vacation. You have to do extra steps to try to sandwich in irrelevant days.

It's a huge security issue to not be able to change shit. That means other people know your direct login credentials, and thus could be doing shit on other people's accounts. The fact that shit is pregen also means that it won't be memorable to the employee an likely require them to write it down. I'm not convinced you've had work issue hardware before. The issues there are self-evident. Doors locking remotely is begging to get #metoo'd.
