JP Morgan will force his British staff to return to the office five days a week from March, and employees have told you to find 'somewhere else to work' if they do not want to follow this policy.
An investment banker who has chosen to remain anonymous, worked at JP Morgan for almost two years and explained that everyone at the office of Canary Wharf has assigned their own desk and will probably be shaken in March.
She said MailOnline: 'Jamie Dimon (JP Morgan's CEO) is set to the fact that he wants a in the office model and if people don't want to be there, they should not work at JP Morgan.
'There are hybrid models for certain teams, but my team has culture five days a week.
“Many people have not been happy with removing the hybrid model because it reduces flexibility.”
The bank has two offices in London; Canary Wharf, their head office and Victoria -Dijk.
The offices in London cannot currently house all 14,000 of his London employees, so employees will be brought on the floor on the floor from March, understand MailOnline.
In a company -wide announcement on January 10, 2025, the company announced that they have re -evaluated the 'benefits and challenges' of remote work and their 22,000 British employees are no longer allowed to work from home.

In the memo sent to the staff through the operational committee of the company, they said: 'Developing effective teams and maintaining a lively, healthy culture are clearly the key to our success – and we believe that it is best achieved by personally together to work.
“This is why we are currently asking most employees according to a hybrid schedule from March to return to the office five days a week.”

Jamie Dimon, the chief executive of the bank, is determined that all the staff will work in the office five times a week.
According to Reuters, Mr Dimon hit the complaints during a meeting of the town hall, which suggests that employees are free to leave if they do not agree with the policy.
Allegedly Mr Dimon said, “I don't care how many people who sign f ****** petition.”
