We're supposed to be doing hybrid, 50% in the office. I don't think we ever went over 30-35% of people in the office. My company tried the carrot, more than the stick to get employees back, like events. Everybody hated the almost-full office in those days. Most teams tried to have in-person team meetings, so there were no available meeting rooms and nobody is really used to the noise of an open-office plan full of people. There is clearly some push from above on our managers, because they try to sound happy but they mostly look as miserable as everyone else.
How was the return for you? Is the whole company back in the office or just you/your team?
Everyone is back and has been since like may 2022. I don't think we even considered keeping homeoffice around longer than it was mandated.
Also I never really had to return. I live closest to the office, so I stayed there while everyone else went home. Someone has to let in the mailman and such.
