Many companies are calling employees back on-site now that the pandemic is winding down. They're also being flexible to keep workers who appreciate the comforts and conveniences of working from home.
Pragadish Kalaivanan, a marketing analyst, got up extra early to dress for work before his first days back at the office in Boston. He's among those happy to still be able to work two days from home, as the company's new hybrid policy allows.
"Oh, I love being back!" says Maureen McLallen, a legal secretary, on her second day back to her office at a large law firm in one of Boston's tallest skyscrapers.After two years of working from home, returning to the office felt like a homecoming."Everyone was hugging each other. It's just such a blessing to be back. I missed everybody," she says, in between greeting the old familiar faces passing by.Being back is as good for the firm as it is for her, McLallen says.
"Definitely, it's been an ordeal," moans Pragadish Kalaivanan, a marketing analyst, who's somewhat less sanguine about the trade-offs."I just wanted my two inches extra," he sighs."I wanted to at least look good, so I feel good coming in.
Beginning March 1, Duolingo employees are required to work from the office, but only for three days a week. And exceptions are being granted for basically anyone who asks—at least for now, von Ahn says. Call it a kind of enlightened self-interest. At the height of the pandemic, when employees were all working remote,"Our innovation pipeline got significantly worse," von Ahn says. But as soon as people started coming back,"the number of new ideas started popping up again."
