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.

Hybrid works, but you need to make sure that all relevant people are there to make it work. That usually means everyone in a department has to be in on a certain day and that people who interact with other departments are also in on certain days.

You have to maximize face time to make hybrid work.

full agree, I’m in a hybrid role right now where the customers I serve are remote to my building and my boss and tech leads are full-time remote. So what’s the point of my commute
