A group of high-ranking Apple employees published an open letter to the company declaring their resignation in April after learning they would need to commute to an office at least three days a week. Ian Goodfellow, Apple's director of machine learning, has decided to leave the company.
It was agreed that forcing a return to the office would cost workers safety, health, mental health and more, while providing little beyond micromanaging control of its employees. It is the latest dustup in a debate over whether the model of working from an office is still relevant in a post-pandemic world.
I believe that more flexibility would have been the best policy for my team, according to a note to staff written by Goodfellow.
There was an open letter from current and former Apple employees.
They argued in the letter that it was much easier with everyone working remotely.
The tech industry has become more difficult to work in due to a lack of access to healthcare and privacy rights in states where tech hubs are located. The work force created by the Pandemic has already been burned out.
It's hard to understand why a company would want to lose a top expert over something so unimportant, especially when research shows that remote workers are better off.
