A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

I assure you, JPMC office environments, as they currently are used, are useless. They're making everyone operate as though we work from home, while in office. We still use Zoom for everything... 40 feet away from eachother. Its as stupid as it sounds.

Do people meet in meeting rooms as well or it’s all just Zoom?

All Zoom. All the time. Nobody uses the meeting rooms anymore unless they're for 1 on 1 conversations that cant be held on the floor.

Ouch, yeah that defeats the purpose

And usually you go into a meeting room with a few others to do a video call with someone. Why not just do it from home?

I think that’s ok? People are in different offices, but as long as you can also work with the local people..

I’m a fan of hybrid, with like 4/5 days at home, assuming people aren’t heavily distracted at home.
