What companies are doing a hybrid work model?
Posted: Wed Jan 15, 2025 4:49 am
Notable examples of companies that are embracing a hybrid work model are:
Google - plans to allow remote working indefinitely or people can choose to work half the week at home
Microsoft - offers the chance to work from home less than half the working week without approval
Uber - has extended its work from home policy and a $500 fund to set up a home office
Zillow - allows employees to work phone list from home permanently
Virgin Media - creating a ‘future of ways’ work strategy to adapt offices for hybrid working
Revolut - moving its staff to permanent flexible working and converting offices into collaboration spaces
Ultimately, the way we work and the technology we need to do it will continue to evolve.
The Great Resignation
Every change has consequences and just as employers have been asking their employees to head back into the office and fit back into more geographically-focused and rigid work routines, a mass exodus has started to unfold—in the form of resignations. Many professionals, marketing creatives included, have decided to leave companies that are seeking to end the more flexible, remote-working situations they have become used to.
What is driving the great resignation? US-based studies show that a sizable 60% of employees will quit their job if forced to return to the office—with factors for leaving driven by not having to commute (83%), cost savings (74%), and time savings (69%), among others.
