> (They) would fully expect that by early July, all U.S.-based employees will be in the office on a consistent rotational schedule.

> Employee rotations at JPMorgan will be subject to a 50% occupancy cap until U.S. authorities revise their social-distancing guidelines, according to Tuesday’s memo. The bank advised workers that “with this time frame in mind you should start making any needed arrangements to help with your successful return.”

Why are you trying to make it seem like they told you to come in every day starting this week, whether you're vaccinated or not?

If I had to guess, it's overzealous middle management layers wanting to show Jamie that their teams are proactive and doing more than the minimum. You know, because of their exceptional leadership qualities.

Besides what you said which is very likely true. These type of things are always verbal communication all the way to top. So it would not be surprise either if management made very measured release and written communication but internally/verbally it is hustling to get everyone back asap.

We have roughly about same announcement. It is confounding to hear "You all did great working from home. Now be back asap to work and meet face to face." Apparently working via slack/webex from office is vastly more productive than doing same from home.

If workers were suddenly doing their jobs with simple emails and independence instead of micromanaging, why, what need of stratified layers of middle management would their be? You could cut down two or three useless layers of corporate administration altogether and have people that actually did work. What kind of a world would that be?!

If I had to guess, it's overzealous middle management layers trying to keep up the appearance they're still providing value after months of diminished ability to micromanage over Zoom

I'll send you my managers email address you can ask him personally if you are so curious. Maybe you'd have better luck finding out than me.
