The video communications company, Zoom ends No-Meeting Wednesday Policy, Calling It ‘Barrier to Collaboration’.

Chief Executive Officer Eric Yuan said in a memo, “As we further ramp up on hybrid work, we’ve decided to make another change and end our No Internal Meeting Wednesdays.”

“We move fast, and this effort has become more of a barrier to collaboration than it was intended. And as an increasingly global company, no Internal Meeting Wednesday creates a lack of clarity for Zoomies working across multiple time zones”, Eric Yuan added.

Recently, Zoom has ended work-from-home and asked all of its employees to report back to the office.

Zoom CEO Eric Yuan said in a memo to employees, ‘We believe that the best way to build Zoom is to have our people together. We need to be able to collaborate and innovate face-to-face.” 

“As a company, we are in a better position to use our own technologies, continue to innovate, and support our global customers”, Eric Yuan added.

“We believe that a structured hybrid approach – meaning employees that live near an office need to be onsite two days a week to interact with their teams – is most effective for Zoom,” a company spokesperson said.

However, now X (formally known as Twitter) users are reacting to this. One user said, “The company that is helping people to work from home is now requiring employees on-site.”

Another user said, “Wait? Zoom has offices?”

“How can a company which literally supports remote work not even believe in the concept itself?”, another user wrote.

“Isn’t it ironic: the company that made billions enabling us all to work from home during the pandemic orders its staff to stop working from home”, another user said.

The companies are updating their policies so that the employees can return to the office and Work from Office.
