As of 2023, 12.7% of full-time employees in the US work from home, while 28.2% work a hybrid model that combines both home and in-office working 1. This indicates the rapid normalization of remote work environments. Despite the steady rise in remote work, the majority of the workforce (59.1%) still work in-office. By 2025 the full-time remote work is projected at 22% overall.
Those who didn’t build palatial showplaces and who can effectively manage an at-home workforce will enjoy the benefits of a lower cost structure and happier employees. Those who cannot embrace change will not survive. Maybe that will become clear to the leadership team but when it does it will probably be too late as they are a headstrong lot.

You are 100% correct. I put money into my home office as well while with another company before joining USAA. I looked forward to using it full time again with USAA, but of course that changed and then I was impacted by the large layoffs this year. At least I have a nice place to do my work if needed. Right now, I use it to look for future employment and supply leads to others. Job search is a full-time gig. I prefer to stay positive!
The RTO conversation is so exhausting. I’d say we’re beating a dead horse but at this point the horse is nothing but bones. I’m as pi---d as anyone, but nothing is changing. At least not under Wayne. It’s time to move on. I put thousands of dollars into my home office because I was hired remote. It’s not fair, it’s not right, it goes against the core values, the list goes on. But it’s not going to change.
No one posted what you claim. Stop making things up to get attention.
USAA does not have a commander in chief. smh
It is the arrogance of those who blindly think that a "president" cannot be awakened to a better way of running a company that makes me realize two things:
- The poster who believes that is a "follower" (as in "moo", time to follow the herd) and
- The poster hasn't a creative bone in his/her body.
Thank goodness for those who keep an open mind and are willing to speak up for a better way.
Wayne will make an "independent" decision to change course on RTO about two months after Larry Fink starts saying that RTO is dead. Wayne thinks he's cool for licking Larry Fink's boots but he doesn't realize he's so far down on Fink's list of obsequious slave CEOs.
Remember the way Wayne was still talking about ESG a couple months after Larry Fink decided the branding was hurting the message? It's like that with every single managerial "idea" Wayne has. He's just phoning it in from Blackrock. Late. And he thinks nobody notices.
You want to wake up the President of the United States about an article talking about the predicted low RTO stats? Ok..........
Not sure what point you are trying to make? Did you comprehend the information provided in the article?
Did you actually read the article past the title? “About 11% of online job postings today advertise positions as fully remote or hybrid, versus 3% before the pandemic, said Julia Pollak, chief economist at ZipRecruiter.” Seems like we are on par but what am I missing?
