• Klarna is calling employees back to the office, claiming they’ve lost top talent that wants to be in-office (Business Insider)

  • Some problems here: (1) no company has ever claimed this reason for RTO, (2) the CEO offered no proof anyone wants to be in the office; in 2022, Klarna employees actually had substantial protest to any potential return to office, and (3) Klarna’s valuation has dropped by 70% from its peak — so this is likely just a way to reduce headcount with voluntary resignations 🤦🏻‍♂️
