A hot potato: Like the majority of big tech firms, Dell has implemented a return-to-office mandate in recent times. And while the company won’t fire those who demand to fully remote, they will be punished in another way: no promotions or applying for new roles.
Starting in May, Dell employees will mostly be classified as either remote or hybrid, writes Business Insider. Hybrid workers must come into the office at least 39 days per quarter, which is the equivalent of about three days per week.
Dell is giving staff the option to stay working from home full time. That might sound enticing, but there are some major caveats. As per a memo seen by BI, the tradeoffs are that career advancement, including applying to new roles in the company, will require a team member to reclassify as “being hybrid onsite.”
CEO Michael Dell had previously been one of the few tech bosses to advocate for remote work.
