A new FTI Consulting survey reveals that 70% of U.S. remote and hybrid workers would likely seek alternative employment if required to return to office full-time at their current salary. The survey, conducted among 1,000 corporate office workers, found that only one-third of workers would be excited about returning to office, citing increased productivity, camaraderie, and collaboration opportunities.
Of those currently fully remote, 74% would likely seek employment elsewhere if mandated to return full-time, compared to 62% of hybrid workers. However, 88% of remote workers would be willing to work in the office for some portion of the week.
The survey highlighted significant variations by industry, with architecture/engineering professionals (94%) most accepting of return-to-office mandates, while tech/telecom workers (51%) were least receptive. Company size and demographics also influenced attitudes, with mid-sized company employees and workers in the Northeast and South most likely to seek new employment if faced with full-time office mandates.
FTI Consulting experts suggest employers need to adapt work environments and enhance office amenities to effectively compete for talent as return-to-office mandates are implemented.
