EA Announces Full Return To Office, Effectively Ending Remote Work

The publisher-behind the Electronic Arts-Deadly Jang, Apex Legends, Split Fiction, The Sims, and several famous sports series, has announced that it is eliminating its remote work policies, and will implement the entire return to the office. CEO Andrew Wilson said the decision reflects the company’s “desire to promote dynamic energy, which fuel creativity, innovation and communication, which often leads to unexpected development that leads to incredible experiences for our players.”

According to IgnWilson delivered the news to employees in an email across a company sent on Wednesday, May 14. In this he explained that “hybrid work” will now be described as “at least three days a week in your local office”, while the “Office Local Role” will gradually exit.

EA Entertainment President Laura Mile then sent a follow -up email to employees, stating what employees can expect because the company “globally, an enterprise extensive work model moves from a विकेंद्रीकृत point of view. The following sketches include:

  • These changes will not be implemented immediately. Employees should continue to work as directed by your business unit as long as you live.
  • Before the implementation of any change, the work model transition will come with a period of at least 12 weeks notice. Time will be different by location and will be told locally with considerable notice.
  • Hybrid work will mean working at least three days every week from your local office – it aligns what is stated in Andrew’s EA Action.
  • We are introducing a 30 mile/48 km long radius around the EA locations.
  • What does this mean:
    • Employees who live 30 miles/48 km from the EA location will move to a hybrid work model.
    • Employees living outside the circle of 30 miles/48 km will be considered remote unless their role is designated as a site or hybrid.
  • We will also sunset the Officeite Local Work model. Depending on your location, this transition may take 3 to 24 months.
  • CEO Direct/My approval will be required to get any work model discount and future remote services.

As IGN ReportEmployees within the EA are “upset and confused” by a sudden change in policy. Some employees will now face a “hour -long” journey, while others have expressed concern over their ability to take care of children and handle personal medical conditions. According to Mile’s email, two anonymous sources alleged that the current remote workers would be “exempt” to return to the office “sunset” at the next “3 to 24 months”.

The EA is now increasing list of companies that eliminate remote work policies include Rock Star Games, Ubesft, and Activation Blizzard. The four have faced severe criticism as a result of these initiatives within and without organizations, and generally the efforts of employees’ business and unity of employees have also been seen.
