Tech CEOs are backtracking on RTO mandates—now, just 3% want workers in the office full-time (fortune.com)

Leaders are perhaps experiencing more resistance than they had anticipated.

Amazon is perhaps the most documented example of how ugly the RTO battle can get: Around 30,000 employees signed a petition protesting the company’s in-office mandate, and more than 1,800 pledged to walk out from their jobs to take a stand.

The tech giant is still complaining that workers are dodging the three-day in-office mandate, over a year after it was announced.

Tech CEOs are backtracking on their RTO mandates—now, just 3% of firms asking workers to go into the office full-time (fortune.com)

Many tech firms have spent the last two years summoning workers back into the office—all the while threatening them with layoffs. Even Zoom reverted to in-person working last year.

But now, it looks like tech bosses have given up their war on working from home.

Just 3% of tech firms are now asking their workers to go into the office full-time—a significant drop from 8% last year.

Flex Index analyzed the flexible work policies for 2,670 tech companies that collectively employ over 11 million people—and it found that tech firms have conceded that flexible working is here to stay.

In fact, 79% of the tech firms surveyed are fully flexible, up from 75% in 2023.

Meanwhile, more and more firms are giving employees the choice of when and where they work.
