Group 22361

 

What actually happens when people go back to the office?
 (Hint: It’s not what the headlines are telling you.)

We crunched the numbers across 19,000+ workspaces worldwide—before and after companies returned to the office—to see how RTO really impacts employee behavior, space usage and workplace efficiency.

Our new research report, From Zooms to Rooms: Real Data on the RTO Experience, is packed with real data, zero fluff.

Here's what we found:

📉 The “Office-moon” is real.

Right before RTO kicks in, office attendance dips 13% as employees squeeze in one last remote hurrah.

👯‍♂️ Collaboration spikes—fast.

In-office teamwork jumps 40% in the first week, then settles at a steady 32% above pre-RTO levels. Turns out, casual collisions are alive and well.

📆 Midweek is king.

Tuesday through Thursday are the new power days. Mondays and Fridays? Still clinging to their remote status.
