JPMorganChase CEO Jamie Dimon said during a Wednesday town hall he didn’t care how many employees signed a petition to bring back hybrid work. The company in mid-January announced a 100% return-to-office mandate, which angered many employees, who argue the move “disproportionately” pushed out women, caregivers, senior employees, and employees with disabilities.
Even if the company itself doesn’t own any, the investors or lenders will. Thus they will have considerable pressure coming from higher up to force people back to the office, or lose that source of money.
