Disney CEO Bob Iger is clamping down on remote workers.

Iger, who recently returned to Disney’s helm after a brief hiatus, ordered employees to return to corporate offices four days a week beginning March 1. In an email sent to employees obtained by CNN, he said that employees work better together in-person. The memo was first obtained by CNBC. “As I’ve been meeting with teams throughout the company over the past few months, I’ve been reminded of the tremendous value in being together with the people you work with,” Iger wrote in the memo.

In a recent town hall, Iger discussed multiple problems facing the company, including Disney’s current hiring freeze and large losses attributed to the Disney+ streaming platform. He also highlighted his No. 1 priority as he takes back the reins: creativity. Many large companies are enforcing strict back-to-work edicts after remote work became commonplace during the first couple years of the Covid-19 pandemic.

This story is so out of context. Fully remote ppl aren’t impacted. Before his return, Disney already implemented a hybrid work status for some roles requring us to be in 3 days a week. Bob increased it to 4, which some feel is unnecessary. Facts are important in reporting.🤷🏽‍♀️

WFH fully = watch yo jobs get offshored

After six years in Scotland , deported. Grand parents from Britain. Tell million British people in South Africa they can go back. Don't TAKE DRUGS DON'T DRINK ALCOHOL. Tradesman. Unemployment rate is 34 percent in South Africa. 😭😭

CNN PLEASE PLEASE STOP don lemon speaking for meghan and harry , he is a bitter soul, full of negativity, harry and meghan dont deserve this!!!

A lot of CEOs are moving back towards this type of hybrid work culture.

Out of touch CEOs. All about their power. 2 years of working from home and tech businesses are running smoothly if not more efficient. The positives of WFH far out weight the negatives.

IRGCterrorists 👍 ok

How to lose staff.

Fake news CNN one rule for Biden different for Trump on classified documents.SJB is a national security risk America people should be worried

The pros of letting people work from home when their job is capable of being 100% remote outweighs the cons.

Why wouldn't they?

Why

What a Mickey Mouse way to run a business.

Get TF to work you lazy people work 6 to 7 days a week roofing or landscaping like i do then 😭😩 to me

4 whole days! Wtf How will the little woke dirtbags be able to “peacefully” protest the phobe of the day now? Oh the humanities!!!

So Disney is learning form elonmusk Good !

Mickey Mouse thinking from a goofy CEO.

Dictators like to see all their minions lined up in front of them, it’s their drug being able to lord it over the masses, it compensates for their chronic insecurity

They’re doing this because of leasing issues and their commercial real estate being essentially unused but it’s a mistake The long-term benefits of remote work far outweigh the short term benefits of your commercial real estate

Just like most control freak ceos

these anti-remote-work dinosaurs need to stop. this is so unnecessary. get with the times or retire you weird luddites

IRGCterrorists

Groomer lite

Getting closer to business as usual.

Good way to weed out the Democrats

Hypocrisy sucks

Woke boss that undervalues employees and their time

Just so I’m in the loop, is this just as evil as when elonmusk did it or is this okay?

but when Musk does it, it is an international crime!

Good. Remote work is worthless.

is production down as a result of remote work?

“these corporate office leases won’t pay themselves!”

AKA, I don’t want to pay for unemployment insurance for layoffs.
