Starbucks to shift to four-day work from office from three, says CEO
UNITED STATES, JUL 15 – Starbucks mandates four in-office days weekly to boost collaboration and turnaround efforts, requiring leaders to relocate or accept a voluntary exit package, CEO Niccol said.
- On September 29, Starbucks corporate employees are expected to work four days a week in-office at Seattle and Toronto support centers and regional offices, Brian Niccol said.
- Niccol positioned the policy as integral to Starbucks’ broader turnaround, `because we do our best work when we’re together`, Niccol wrote.
- To enforce the shift, Starbucks will offer a voluntary exit program with a cash payment, as Brian Niccol said, providing managers an exit option within 12 months.
- In his letter, Niccol acknowledged employee concerns and said `If you decide you want to leave Starbucks for any reason, we respect that`.
- This move mirrors a broader industry trend of companies returning to in-person work, with Amazon and JP Morgan tightening remote policies.
