Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Even Zoom is making its staff return to the office
Headquartered in San Jose, California, Zoom is a communication
technology company that offers online video meetings, messaging, voice calls,
virtual events, and contact centers. Due to the increase in remote work,
distance education, and remote social relations during the COVID-19 pandemic,
usage increased substantially and the Zoom mobile app was the 5th most
downloaded mobile app in 2020, after TikTok, WhatsApp, Facebook, and Instagram.
But as the pandemic wanes, many companies, agencies, and offices have brought
back the onsite work requirements, whether they are full-time, a few times a
week, or hybrid. Surprisingly, Zoom itself has recently announced that it wants
its employees who live close to the office to work onsite two days a week. The video
meeting company believes that is the most efficient way to keep their teams
connected. What about the employees who live far away from the office? Can’t
they be part of the teams of the company if they can’t work in person in the
office? Is hybrid truly the most effective way for employers or the best
compromise between employers and employees?
Enjoy reading the article and learning about this back-to-office phenomenon.
