The Covid-19 pandemic has prompted the world to think differently about remote work, with more companies allowing employees to pick between working from home or the office. With the vaccine rollout now in progress, it seems some companies are making plans for what their workplace structure will look like in the future – and that includes Ubisoft.
Bloomberg journalist Jason Schreier earlier this week tweeted that Ubisoft had emailed employees about a new “hybrid” work structure, and Ubisoft has now published this email on its official website.
“In summary the future will be hybrid, offering the majority of Ubisoft team members the opportunity to balance home and office work,” the post explains. “This has been designed based on our learnings from the past year and from your feedback; this ‘test and learn’ approach is one we will continue to adopt moving forward.”
The email then goes on to discuss the details of how this will work: some jobs will allow for flexibility between working from home or in the office, with a “small number of roles and individuals eligible for full remote work”. Some roles, however, will require employees to only work in the office “given their nature or due to technical constraints.
