Despite the popular belief that younger generations are champions of remote work, one-third of Gen Z and millennial workers say they'd be willing to work fully in-person if it meant shaving a day off of their workweek.

[. . .]

Other sacrifices that Gen Z and millennial employees say they'd make in exchange for a four-day workweek include working longer hours (48%), changing jobs or companies (35%), working weekends or evenings (27%) and even taking a pay cut (13%)

Translation:

  • 67% would not switch from remote to in-person
  • 52% would not work longer hours
  • 65% would not change jobs
  • 73% would not work evenings/weekends
  • 87% would not take a pay cut

Fuckin based honestly. I thought they would ask for less compromise, but if they're gonna go for the gut we'd better just tell them how it is. Less hours are proven to make better working happier more productive and cooperative employees. They're just potentially less compliant.
