#580 - Grab Reverts to 5-Day Office Week & Singapore Ranks 3rd Worldwide in Burnout
Description
Is the pandemic honeymoon truly over? Singapore tech giant Grab is ending hybrid work for its employees and summoning everyone back to HQ, continuing a trend we’re seeing across the world. We discuss what working from home means for employees, as well as employers in various industries. Heck we even talk about us, and how we pivoted from recording YLB from home, to our studio! Also, Singapore recently ranked 3rd in a global ranking on burnout. Why are we so good at being so bad?
