"High-performing employees are more easily able to pursue opportunities at organizations that offer hybrid or fully remote policies," said Caitlin Duffy, director in the Gartner HR practice.
The reason these employees were less likely to stay, the study said, was because they feel a strict policy translates to distrust to do their job. The study also points out that these employees also may have an easier time finding another job - one that gives them the flexibility to work from home.
Flexibility was key for other groups of employees as well, particularly women and millennials, whose intent to stay dropped to 11% and 10%, respectively, when companies adhered to a strict return-to-office policy.
