Cisco says staff don't have to come into the office

No return is needed for the Cisco Kid

Cisco has surprised everyone by saying that it will not require its workers to come into the office to be bored by middle managers and whiteboards ever again.

Under the "no return to office" policy, Cisco will not set any top-down mandate for the number of days per week its more than 75,000 employees spend in physical offices. Instead, every employee will be considered a hybrid worker and the company's leadership is encouraging managers to grant workers flexibility in whether they work remotely or in the office.

To be fair, Cisco was losing interest in seeing its workers too often. Before the pandemic, many at Cisco worked from home, with roughly 14 percent of employees working remotely prior to office shutdowns. But now, more than 75 percent of employees say they plan to continue working remotely three to five days per week, even when office entry is possible.
