After a year and a half of a widespread shift to remote work triggered by efforts to slow the spread of the COVID-19 virus, companies began bringing their team members back to work in earnest around March of 2022. Buoyed by the growing availability of the various COVID-19 vaccines and subject to testing, masking and social distancing requirements, major employers like Google, Twitter and Citigroup began plans to bring staff back on site. Despite some hiccups with the Omicron variant, dozens of top employers and countless smaller ones have now either ended remote work entirely or shifted to a hybrid model.
