This is the best summary I could come up with:
Drew Houston, the CEO of the file-storage company Dropbox, is continuing to tout a predominantly remote work culture, even as business leaders increasingly call for their workers to return to the office.
The San Francisco-based company — which had more than 3,000 employees before a round of layoffs — doesn't require its workers to be present in the office.
They're not resources to control,'" Houston told Fortune when asked about what message he had for CEOs who believed in return-to-office mandates.
Dimon — whose company requested some employees to be in the office five days a week and was tracking attendance by monitoring ID swipes — told the Economist in July: "I completely understand why someone doesn't want to commute an hour and a half every day, totally got it.
"Obviously the company wants to spin it really positively," a former employee who left in 2021 told Insider, adding that virtual-first meant fewer options for people who enjoyed going into the office.
Dropbox and Houston did not immediately respond to requests for comment from Insider, sent outside regular business hours.
The original article contains 382 words, the summary contains 179 words. Saved 53%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
I feel like this bot should include the full quote when it sees quatation marks. Here’s the full quote from Dimon(JP Morgan)
Dimon — whose company requested some employees to be in the office five days a week and was tracking attendance by monitoring ID swipes — told the Economist in July: "I completely understand why someone doesn't want to commute an hour and a half every day, totally got it. Doesn't mean they have to have a job here either."
Seriously. That last bit totally changed what he really meant.
These summary bots are pretty shit. I find they leave out heaps of context and just make me click on the article.
