    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Yet while those companies and many others have issued return-to-office mandates, Nvidia, which has about 26,000 employees worldwide and a valuation of over $1 trillion, is bucking the trend and putting no pressure on remote workers to commute to cubicles.

    That followed an earlier employee walkout protesting the policy, where one worker leading the charge insisted, “We can be productive, customer obsessed, we can do our good work, we can make a difference, and it does not have to be in an office building.”

    Adam Mosseri, head of Meta’s Instagram, wrote on Threads, “We have not yet figured out hybrid work.” Meanwhile Zuckerberg touted cutting-edge metaverse headsets, saying on the Lex Fridman Podcast, “I think this gets us a lot closer to being able to work physically in different places…I think we’re not there today with just video conferencing and the basic technologies that we have.”

    The company still has ambitious plans for new offices, including in Seattle and Sydney, where it’s broken ground on a 40-story headquarters featuring lush interiors and spaces designed with employee gatherings in mind.

    Sadow believes that by letting workers choose between working remotely or collaborating in cutting-edge office space, Nvidia gains a “pretty meaningful talent advantage.”

    The report warned that companies forcing employees back to cubicles “run the risk of losing their pipeline of leaders and have difficulty recruiting fresh talent.”
