Harley-Davidson shakeup as new CEO's urgent demand could leave workers furious
"Harley-Davidson CEO Artie Starrs has mandated that all corporate workers living within a 50 mile radius of the company's headquarters in Milwaukee must return to work in-person. Employees will return to work in-person for three days a week starting in March, which will drop down to four days a week in-person in September. Harley's previous CEO, Jochen Zeitz, implemented the work-from-home policy on the onset of the pandemic in March 2020."
"Unlike other companies that gradually transitioned to a hybrid work model, Harley's corporate headquarters have been fully remote for nearly six years. Though it's unclear how many employees will be impacted by the directive, the company's 2024 filings show it has 5,900 employees as of December 31, 2024. Around 2,000 are unionized manufacturing employees, and 82% of its workforce is based in the United States, according to the filing."
