As the pandemic wanes, many Bay Area companies are calling their employees back to the office. Tech giant Google is among the companies ordering more people back to the office more often. Other companies, such as Meta, are requiring all workers to come to the office three days a week starting in September.
According to a recent report, many tech companies initially embraced long-term work from home, but they have started urging employees to come back to the office. Some employees are pushing back, but this may not stop the tide. The shift back to the office is not just happening in the tech industry. Other companies, such as Wells Fargo and Visa, are also calling their employees back to the office.
The move back to the office is not without controversy. Some employees have grown accustomed to working from home and are reluctant to return to the office. Others are concerned about the safety of returning to the office during the ongoing pandemic.
Despite these concerns, many companies are pushing ahead with their plans to bring employees back to the office. The shift back to the office is expected to be gradual, with many companies offering a hybrid model that allows employees to work from home part of the time.
