1. Google doesn’t want employees working remotely anymore. - The Verge
  
  That’s the takeaway from an internal memo sent today that I’ve seen. Take this section: The email also reminds employees that they should be coming into the office three days a week if they aren’t already designed as remote, and that managers can factor their absences into performance reviews. Meta recently issued a similar notice on coming into the office to its workers.
