Microsoft asked its employees to return to the office three days per week last year, and it’s now upping this requirement to four days a week for most Xbox employees. An internal memo, seen by The Verge, describes the change as a “need to create more opportunities for people to work together” after feedback from Xbox employees. “Starting February 1st, 2027, Xbox employees in Puget Sound who live within 50 commuting miles of Studio D are required to work from the office a minimum of four days a week,” says Jacinda Chislum Pearson, Xbox chief people officer, in the internal memo. “We have thousands of Xbox employees within commuting distance of Redmond.

Poll shows citizens back multiple vehicle technologies over EU mandates - CLEPA | European Association of Automotive Suppliers

Citizens’ preferred option (47%) is to incentivise low and zero-emission vehicles over a technology banOnly 8% of consumers plan to buy a battery-electric vehicle (BEV) as their next carThe average consumer surveyed rejects an automotive technology ban, is considering a range of powertrain options for their next vehicle, and sees further preparation as necessary for full electrification. These are the core findings from a new YouGov poll of citizens across five major markets (France, Germany, Italy, Poland, and Spain; together more than 70% of the EU automotive market). For policymakers, the upcoming review of CO2 standards for cars and vans presents a critical opportunity to enable a wider set of drivetrain technologies and truly align the pace of climate policies with citizen expectations and their perception of the state of readiness of their country.
