JPMorgan Chase employees believe their work-life balance and health and well-being declined following the bank’s decision to return to office full-time in March, Barron’s reports. Based on an internal survey released this week of 90% of the workforce, the aforementioned areas scored lowest, alongside opportunities for internal mobility.
The best half cocked reason I’ve heard from my own employer, is optics when clients are visiting and tours and shit. It’s not a good reason, but it was the only reason I’ve heard with any explanation.
There are plenty of people that I know that like going to the office and others that like hybrid. I am hybrid 3 days at home, and I’m okay with that, and if I want to, I’ll just say I’m not coming in, and nobody asks questions. The point is, if you need asses in seats, find the people in the company that want to, and work within those bounds, or incentives fringe people if you need more. If my company required RTO, I’d immediately update my resume and start shopping around.
lol if I was visiting a vendor and heard they had forced RTO I’d question working with them because they clearly don’t make good decisions.
