GOOGLE STRUGGLES WITH REMOTE WORK, DRASTICALLY CUTTING ‘WORK FROM ANYWHERE' POLICY

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

A single Work from Anywhere (WFA) day logged by Google employees in a standard workweek will now count as a full WFA week, deducted from the yearly balance. Employees are allowed to work from a non-main office location for up to four weeks per calendar year. It is now best for employees to spend the whole week working remotely to make the most out of their WFA allowance. The WFA policy is designed for people taking trips - Google maintains a separate work-from-home policy that allows employees to work from home two days per week.
