3 years later, bosses and employees still clash over return to office

Three years since the pandemic spurred the remote work phenomenon, employees want to retain their flexibility, while bosses are prioritizing satisfying customers over workers.

Instances of the latter have included employers rescinding prized perks like the option to work from anywhere, and cheering on workers who make personal sacrifices in order to show up to work in person. 

For example, James Clarke, CEO of digital marketing company Clearlink, drew fire online after praising a worker who sold their family dog in order to return to the office.
