Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear you’ve had a positive experience and value the flexibility we’ve offered. Our current hybrid work model—typically three days in the office—is aligned with global and industry standards to foster collaboration, innovation, and team connection. We understand that transitions can be challenging, and we encourage open conversations with your manager to explore any flexibility that may be needed based on individual circumstances.
