JPMorgan Reportedly Ending Remote Work for More Than 300k Employees


JPMorgan Chase, the largest bank in the U.S., reportedly plans to end remote work and require more than 300,000 employees to be in the office five days a week.

The pending return-to-office announcement is likely to come within weeks and would end “a hybrid-work option for thousands of staff and returning to the attendance policy that was in place before the pandemic,” according to Todd Gillespie and Sridhar Natarajan. When the chairman and CEO of the company is as vocal an advocate for in-person work arrangements as Jamie Dimon, it could be expected that a return-to-office (RTO) mandate would eventually come. The driving force behind implementing such expansive polices in support of remote and hybrid work was COVID-19, the global pandemic which first became a huge factor for all U.S workplaces in early 2020.
