Exclusive: IBM Consulting orders non-exempt staff back to the office for at least three days a week
IBM Consulting on Tuesday issued a policy telling US employees located near IBM or client offices that they are expected to be in the office at least three days a week.Employees responding to the revised work rules on IBM's Fishbowl app, used for internal discussions, speculate the IT giant is, as one worker put it,"creating voluntary attrition so they don't have to RA." That's Resource Action, IBM's euphemism for a layoff.
That IBM Consulting Return to the Workplace FAQs begins:"Q: Why is IBM Consulting expecting employees to return to the workplace three days a week, whenever possible?" The answer is:"We see value in a hybrid model of both working remotely and being face-to-face with clients, whenever possible. The policy applies to employees who live"near an IBM office," however that's defined. Fully remote employees – those designated"work-from-home" or"mobile" – are exempt though they are encouraged to visit an IBM office to"strengthen relationships, promote learning, and spark ideas."
