  1. I’m fortunate there will be no return to office for me. There’s no office to return to lol. My office is either at home or in my company car, depending on the day and my tasks

  2. They also cut 17% of their workforce in the past year, so don’t worship them as some type of corporate martyr too hard.

    They still offer a shit service, so I’m not exactly sure what they’re actually doing over ~~there~~ anywhere.

  4. A company that never invested heavy in real estate does not see the need to bring people to a building. The entire concept of flipping remote work around is based on real estate justification and power over your employee. I may not like them as a company nor the product, however they are right on this subject.

  5. “You can’t spend a lot of time hiring grown-ups and then treat them like children,” Spotify’s Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO) Katarina Berg says”.

    I would be the best employee ever for this woman. This is what good leadership looks like.

  6. I really don’t get why any large business would want their employees to return. Like seriously, it’s so much cheaper to have your employees work from home.

    Looks like Spotify’s playlist for success is on shuffle and they hit play on “Work From Anywhere”! They’re living that “Can’t Stop the Feeling” life while others are stuck on “The Office” reruns. Maybe they’ll drop a “Now That’s What I Call Remote Work” album next!

  8. Meanwhile, Apple says many of its employees ARE children – “work from sweatshop” plan remains

  9. Good for them. I personally don’t think WFH will be everywhere but this is nice to hear.

  10. “Subsequently, the office dedicated to reactivating the ‘Remove From Recently Played’ option we updated out for no reason years ago will hereby remain firmly and irrevocably shuttered.”

  11. I have absolutely no idea what employees at Spotify are doing besides negotiating with artists,sales type stuff. The product is built and hasn’t changed in years
