WPP aims to incentivize employees to return to the office by offering free lunches on Fridays, part of a new return-to-office (RTO) policy that mandates employees work in-office four days a week, including two Fridays monthly. This effort comes after a significant backlash, with over 20,000 employees signing a petition against the RTO rules. WPP's CEO Mark Read argues that in-person work leads to better collaboration and performance, while critics highlight concerns about employee well-being and work-life balance.
