Business leaders say hybrid workers feeling “burnout”

  1. To solve the issue we need to start doing 6 days a week IN the office. That’s the only way to cure the burnout feeling.

  2. I myself doubt that hybrid working is what is leading to burnout in workers.

    I think its got a lot more to do with modern society and work culture being largely antiquated when it comes to a work life balance. People have been put through a serious ringer the past few years in this country, and I think the disenfranchisement is coming through.

  3. Best stop them working hybrid then and let them WFH full time. Sell those offices and turn them into apartments

  4. You know what will fix my burnout?

    * Having me commute for 90 minutes each way through the cold wet winter.
    * Taking away the time I use to exercise and prepare fresh healthy meals
    * Taking away my family time and putting strain on my relationships
    * Adding additional costs for unnecessary commutes during a cost of living crisis

    Thanks Business leaders, I knew you were looking out for me

  5. After 15 years of work from home id give my left nut to go work in office 9-5 but im on the wrong continent. I thought about hiring an office space close to home just to have an office to go to but its too expensive.

    There are so many productivity issues with people who WFH , the biggest of which is adherance to schedule and levels of concentration that my company boosted wages in current recruitment for people who will work full time in the office.

  6. Surveying business leaders but not employees?

    I have no doubt people who moved further away from their office and commute long distances 2 or 3 days a week feel burnout, but versus full time in the office? I highly doubt there’s more stress with hybrid…

  7. My commute is 2 secs WFH v 3 hours going into the office. Stick it up your fucking poxy bollix “business leaders.” Fucking arseholes are so transparent

  8. I don’t think it’s hybrid working, I think it’s just the atmosphere in general. Covid took a lot out of people and there’s a kind of delayed shock now as people start to readjust to normal life. Or some semblance of it. Add to that, the Ukraine war, the after effects of Brexit, the cost of living crisis, the homelessness and increase in violence people are feeling the world seems to have become very dark lately.

    Dragging unwilling people kicking and screaming into offices will fix none of that.

  9. Business leaders say workers are feeling “that they’re being paid too much”.
    Business leaders say workers are feeling “like doing a seven day work week for three days pay.”

  10. > over half of business leaders believe

    As scientific as a flat earther’s view on planetary shapes.

  11. No we don’t , fuck off and leave us alone at home. So sick of all these fake bullshit articles trying to spin that WFH is bad. It’s so transparent.

  12. Last job I was in I had burnout. I don’t think WFH was the issue. It was more to do with doing my work, my managers work and then training a dozen people on the team in work they had no knowledge or interest in.

  13. 1 day a week in the office is the sweet spot for me, I go in do whatever meetings I need to do and go home, now I’ve to be in twice weekly and it’s a pain in the hole.

    Ironically enough, the weekly department meeting for which we are supposed to be in the office for is held on Microsoft Teams and we sit side by side in the open office instead of going into the Boardroom as it’s too much effort. In fairness it is Company wide thing rather than my department
