JPMorgan Chase, the largest bank in the U.S., reportedly plans to end remote work and require more than 300,000 employees to be in the office five days a week.
You get free coffee? We have to buy our own machine and run a “coffee club” to pitch in for ongoing costs. I opt to instead nod off at my desk. I don’t even care that it’s an open office and that people can see me.
Even my absolute worst job, which had a total fun of an office, had free coffee (later found out another location across the country did not, while the main office was in a fairly nice office tower with good lighting, free coffee, and a nap room)
I guess it depends on the local job market and the type of company. I saw free coffee at the smaller companies around here, but the larger companies didn’t offer it (at least not by the time I started working). It blows my mind that they’d cheap out on coffee when it’s a productivity booster. Well, if they want to be petty with saving a buck, so can I. I’ll be catching up on sleep at the office.
