Employers are Taking Full Advantage of Their New Found Leverage

In recent news, Bloomberg reported a significant shift in the American job landscape – work-from-home rates have dropped to their lowest levels since the pandemic. Simultaneously, there's growing speculation that some "return to office" mandates are veiled layoffs in disguise, daring employees to quit. These trends underscore a pivotal transformation in the job market, one that tilts the balance back into employers' favor.


The pandemic temporarily shifted the scales in favor of job seekers, with remote work opportunities becoming the norm. Candidates enjoyed newfound leverage as they navigated a landscape where their skills were in high demand, and flexibility was prized.
