That’s how you do it and attract talent
+1 for Spotify!
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
Automotive especially in America still has Boomer personality. Sorry.
They also cut 17% of their workforce in the past year, so don’t worship them as some type of corporate martyr too hard.
rare Spotify W
They still offer a shit service, so I’m not exactly sure what they’re actually doing over ~~there~~ anywhere.
What does Spotify need employees for? What do they do all day?
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.
“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.
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.
Time to start tailoring my resume for Spotify.
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!
Meanwhile, Apple says many of its employees ARE children – “work from sweatshop” plan remains
Good for them. I personally don’t think WFH will be everywhere but this is nice to hear.
but weren’t they already remote before covid?
Finally one company shows common sense.
“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.”
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
Bravo! Very good decision.
I think it’s funny that the standard that has existed literally forever is now considered “companies treating adults like children”.
It’s awesome companies are changing and adopting work from anywhere.
I’m also tired of seeing everyone whine that they have to return to the office, which is what they signed up for when they applied for the job. Those are the real children. Want change? Apply to companies like Spotify
Shopify follows work from anywhere coincidentally
All the best talent in the industry is now looking at their careers page. This is how you win in a highly competitive industry.
If only they would stop fucking with the algorithms of how radios are made on their platform, always suggesting the same songs. Good for them for treating their workers like humans. But now let’s work on making the service more user friendly for listening to music. I used Spotify to discover music and now it’s a nonstop loop of twelve songs in every playlist it creates “just for me”
I’m just ranting at work into the Reddit void. Sorry folks.
The best jobs I had, and currently have are ones where I work alone. So I’m guessing people are more productive when there’s no social aspect to work, so no work place drama. I run out of stuff to do when I work so end up just sitting around on my phone killing time until clock out time, since being a janitor if I clock when work is done I didn’t do it right. My boss checks my work too, says my places are the cleanest and get the most praise when he calls the place for a review.
Well, Joe Rogan is a child.
If they don’t perform, whether they work from home or not, fire them and bring it someone better. I dont understand the return to the office mandate obsession from CEOs.
