The remote work pioneers | Zoom tells employees to come back to the office

Zoom, the video-conference business that boomed over the pandemic, is calling its staff to return to the office.

The company, which relies heavily on its customer base to work remotely, is mandating that its own employees who live within a 50-mile radius of an office must go in two days a week.

Zoom joins the long list of large companies, especially within tech, who are mandating their workforce return to the office in a bid to increase productivity.

The San Fransisco-based software company has called its new policy a “structured hybrid approach” where it would “continue to leverage the entire Zoom platform to keep our employees and dispersed teams connected and working efficiently”.
