JPMorgan Chase's CEO Jamie Dimon firmly enforced a return-to-office policy for employees, rejecting calls for flexibility during a town hall meeting. Analyst Nicholas Welch, expressing his concerns about family obligations, suggested that individual managers should determine office attendance. Dimon responded assertively, declaring no possibility of delegating this decision-making authority. Despite Welch receiving support from colleagues, Dimon's stance reflects a longstanding commitment to direct oversight amid criticisms of productivity and resource allocation since the pandemic.
His coworkers clapped - but Dimon immediately nixed the notion. "That's it?" Dimon shot back. "I'm going to give you a complete answer: There is no chance that I would leave that up to managers."
