Google Relaxes Remote Work Plan
Google recently announced that it now expects 20% of its employees to work from home after its offices reopen later this year. Google had previously taken a more strict approach to the return to work, due to the extensive amount of Silicon Valley real estate that Google owns. Now, as some technology workers see other employers offering greater flexibility, Google is relaxing its approach. In December the company announced a plan to have workers spend three days a week in the office. Now, Google expects that 60% of its employees will be on site for a few days a week, with 20% working in new office locations and 20% working from home
