Microsoft
Microsoft said the working flexibly 50 per cent of the time is the standard for most jobs. Speaking to Economic Times, Ira Gupta, HR head at Microsoft, said, “We believe that agreements are most effective when made collaboratively with inputs from everyone on the team. Team agreements are dynamic as they are based on the unique context of the individuals, the team as a collective and the business.”
She said these agreements are revisited frequently by managers and teams to check if any changes are to be made.
Accenture
In a similar manner, Accenture said its employees at advanced technology centres in India are free to pick their own work location from any part of the cities where the company is located.
“We believe there is no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to the future of work and our approach to how, when and where we work will vary by business, team and the type of work our people do,” Lakshmi C, managing director and lead, HR, Accenture India, told a news portal.
Deloitte
Deloitte also in the same way said it has left it to individual partners, and team leads to decide when a team needs to meet at the workplace, along with who needs to join physically.
