Some companies may continue to waffle, says Woolley: to guard against this kind of attrition, "many organisations held off on putting out formal policies over concern about this happening, and some may continue to keep things vague or 'flexible'". Additionally, some firms who have released formal plans to bring back workers have since softened their stands, or even reversed course. Apple has paused its return to office scheme, citing rising Covid-19 cases; it’s not clear whether quits have quietly factored into this decision, too, but employees are reportedly pleased with the delay.
