“The vibes around the return to office are not good,” says the New York Times’ Emma Goldberg, a business reporter covering workplace culture. Tens of millions of Americans — one-fourth of the workforce — are in hybrid work limbo four years after the pandemic’s onset. Across white-collar sectors, the expectations around how often workers are in-office vary workplace by workplace and even team by team. While many are grateful for the flexibility and routines they’ve formed working from home, managers are feeling the strain of near-empty offices on innovation and team morale. And when workers do go in, they navigate the uncertainty of commutes, which co-workers will be there and whether they’ll find a quiet place to work. We’ll talk about the strife between workers and managers and how different workplaces are addressing this. And we’ll hear from you: Are you a hybrid worker? What’s your experience been?
