Some staff members were alerted on Wednesday they were “not currently meeting our expectation of joining your colleagues in the office at least three days a week”, according to emails shared with the Financial Times. The emails were also discussed on the anonymous corporate message board platform Blind.

As much as I enjoy working hybrid remote, it is not helping the business in the long run. My coworkers complain that there is less accountability and collaboration. Some can’t do their job properly because team members do not show up. There is no mentoring happening as these individuals pick and choose their days and sometimes don’t come in.

Hybrid is a bad in between for us and it is showing.

Now I see my coworkers starting to quit and switching to jobs that demand their employees in every day. Money is one reason but also they miss feeling part of a team which is important in my industry. My position isn’t team based so I’m fine either way and do feel better going in a few days a week so I’m not outcasted!

I feel my company is the last one in the industry with 3 day a week in the office structure. Not to sure what will change but I do know for a fact more coworkers will be leaving. 😢
