KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM sf.citi’s RETURN TO WORK SURVEY
Ever since the pandemic forced companies to go remote, business leaders and policymakers could only speculate how workers would return to the office, if at all. Now with San Francisco’s reopening in sight, we surveyed the sf.citi community to get a sense of where employers stood on return to work policies. Our survey results reaffirmed the common perception that the office we knew from before the pandemic will never be the same and remote work, whether permanently or a few days a week, will become a staple of businesses everywhere. Check out the full survey results and other key takeaways in our write-up below.
