Some employees at JPMorgan Chase are resisting the call to return to showing up in person to work in the office. They like working from home and want to keep it that way.
CEO Jamie Dimon is not happy about it and blasted his workers during a call that has been leaked.
This is exactly what’s happening with Trump and federal government employees. So many of the people who were allowed to start working from home during COVID just don’t want to give it up and return to the workplace.

Jamie Dimon: ‘Don’t give me this s‑‑‑ that work-from-home Friday works’
JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon scolded employees Wednesday in Columbus, Ohio, during a fiery internal town hall, after workers raised concerns with the bank’s five-day return-to-office policy, according to audio reviewed by The Hill.
“It simply doesn’t work,” Dimon said, referring to policies that allow employees to work remotely. “And it doesn’t work for creativity. It slows down decisionmaking.”
“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,” he added during the meeting.
Some staffers at the nation’s largest bank joined forces to sign a petition urging the CEO not to remove hybrid workdays. However, Dimon condemned the effort while claiming that work-from-home opportunities are harming the next generation of workers.
“The young generation is being damaged by this. That may or may not be in your particular staff, but they are being left behind,” he said during the event.

There are plenty of jobs that can be done from home. Maybe these workers should change careers if that’s what they really want to do.
