Apple has been pushing fully remote employees to come back into the office on a hybrid schedule for more than a year now, but after receiving significant pushback at various stages of their attempt to implement the new hybrid plan, Apple appears to be reverting to the information-gathering stage of the process after sending out a survey last week that largely inquires about employee feelings on hybrid and remote work as well as company culture in general.
Despite calling hybrid work “the mother of all experiments,” Apple head Tim Cook attempted to lean into that experiment in the Fall of 2022 by requiring employees to be in office for a few set days a week, but that plan led to an organized effort among employees to illustrate the improved efficiency and performance quality of their remote work.
Lately, Apple had become more aggressive in their own push toward a mandatory hybrid schedule via threatened repercussions for employees who don’t meet their hybrid requirements, but Apple leadership may once again be in the process of recalibrating those plans in light of the survey and the yet-to-be-seen results.
