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.
That was the point. It’s an unstructured layoff, where they create conditions that will force people to quit which reduces costs. But it does not carry the same scrutiny and regulation of a formal layoff.

My company did a forced RTO. Moral dropped. In one category, it dropped to 14%. We couldn’t hire anyone and people were quitting. Our president kept saying “We will never return to WFH.”
Less than 6 months, later we went fully remote.

What is it about CEOs that makes this the ego power trip issue for them?

Tax breaks for having asses in seats at certain geographic locations.

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.

I wish this was more prolific. It seems half the people I know who get forced into RTO…the company suffers but it is never RTO’s fault.

Aye. It’s always ok to simply go “shit, we were wrong, let’s do this different this time” because we’re all humans. It’s when you refuse to even consider sometime a failure and then everyone has to show up and step in that pile of shit every day.
