JPMorgan Chase Workers Demand Jamie Dimon Reverse New 5-Day In-Office Workweek, Call Rule ‘Great Leap Backward’

JPMorgan Chase employees are banding together to call on the bank’s CEO to back down on his demand for a full five-day in-office work week.

In a new petition on CoWorker.org, JPMorgan Chase workers say CEO Jamie Dimon should reconsider the bank’s return-to-office (RTO) policy, and that the idea of remote work equating low performance has been thoroughly debunked.

The workers say they are “concerned about the future of our workplace – its integrity, employee satisfaction, and the increasing toxicity that has metastasized in our company culture in the last couple of months.”

The petition, which now has 1,595 of its 2,000 signature goal, says that a hybrid model that combines in-office with remote work is better for the employees, customers, shareholders and the “global community.”

“The recent mandate for 100% in-office work is a great leap backward: It hurts employees, customers, shareholders, and the firm’s reputation. From a corporate-citizenship perspective, it worsens traffic and pollution while disproportionately pushing out women, caregivers, senior employees, and individuals with disabilities. Many of these are top performers, and many of them only able to join the workforce under hybrid work rules. This directly contradicts JPMC’s commitments to diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Remote work may not suit in-person services, but it’s the way of the future for all knowledge work. Indeed, it’s often the only way to get anything done, even from the office!”

JPMorgan informed employees on January 10th that they would need to appear in person at the office five days a week after years of using a hybrid model stemming from the complexities of Covid-19.

In leaked audio obtained by The Hill , Dimon slammed remote working, even only on Fridays.

“It simply doesn’t work… And it doesn’t work for creativity. It slows down decision-making…

And don’t give me the s*** that ‘work from home Friday’ works. I call a lot of people on Friday. There’s not a goddamn person to get a hold of…

You don’t have to work at JP Morgan. So, the people of you who don’t want to work at the company, that’s fine with me… I’m not mad at you. Don’t be mad at me.”

It’s a free country. You can walk on your feet. But this company is going to set our own standards and do it our own way. And I’ve had it with this kind of stuff.”
