The Hindu
Dell CEO Michael Dell hailed the power of human interactions when compared to email exchanges.
Dell is ending its hybrid work policy from March 3, with employees living within an hour of the office expected to work on-site five days a week, according to a Business Insider report. Employees working remotely due to their distance from office or other factors will need approval from three of the senior-most company leaders in order to obtain a promotion, it added.
Dell CEO Michael Dell justified the decision by noting that human conversations could quickly handle what would take hours or days-long email exchanges to resolve otherwise. The details of the return-to-office mandate are still being worked out, per the report.
