A week into 2025, the return-to-office crackdown is already in full swing after WPP, the British FTSE 100–listed ad behemoth, sent a memo to its staffers ordering them back into office at least four days a week.
Until now, the company has had a hybrid work setup, with some employees working as little as one day a week in the office. But starting April, WPP will require its staff to "spend an average of four days a week in the office," according to a memo sent by CEO Mark Read on Tuesday.
