Big tech companies are still trying to rally workers back into physical offices, and many workers are still not having it. Based on a recent report, computer-maker Dell has stumbled even more than most.
Dell announced a new return-to-office initiative earlier this year. In the new plan, workers had to classify themselves as remote or hybrid.
Those who classified themselves as hybrid are subject to a tracking system that ensures they are in a physical office 39 days a quarter, which works out to close to three days per work week.
Alternatively, by classifying themselves as remote, workers agree they can no longer be promoted or hired into new roles within the company.
Business Insider claims it has seen internal Dell tracking data that reveals nearly 50 percent of the workforce opted to accept the consequences of staying remote, undermining Dell’s plan to restore its in-office culture.
I might be older than your dad and I don’t recall seeing an offer like this. 😊
I am their dad and I have no idea what they’re talking about.
Used to be the norm here in Czechia, maybe your country wasn’t as progressive 🤔
Well, I think many people on lemmy don’t live in country that once was one of 15-states multinational conglomerate for universal healthcare, universal education, universal housing and long term planning. Not that such planning was very good at the end of it. Or not that it wasn’t occasionallly sidetracked with killing people.
