Hogan Lovells has announced a shift back to predominantly in-office work beginning in September, requiring lawyers to be on-site four days a week. The firm's leadership argues that in-person collaboration fosters energy, innovation, and professional growth, which cannot be achieved remotely. Acknowledging the challenges of hybrid work, the firm intends to maintain some flexibility for employees with significant personal commitments, while allowing designated remote weeks. This change underscores a broader trend among legal firms to return to office-centered workflows post-pandemic for enhanced mentorship and cultural cohesion.
In-person collaboration allows us to share ideas organically and spontaneously, strengthens relationships, and enhances professional growth, and connection in ways that are not always possible remotely.
Being together in person creates an environment where we can learn, grow, and succeed, which requires a renewed focus on in-office collaboration.
