    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Drew Houston, the CEO of the file-storage company Dropbox, is continuing to tout a predominantly remote work culture, even as business leaders increasingly call for their workers to return to the office.

    The San Francisco-based company — which had more than 3,000 employees before a round of layoffs — doesn’t require its workers to be present in the office.

    They’re not resources to control,'" Houston told Fortune when asked about what message he had for CEOs who believed in return-to-office mandates.

    Dimon — whose company requested some employees to be in the office five days a week and was tracking attendance by monitoring ID swipes — told the Economist in July: "I completely understand why someone doesn’t want to commute an hour and a half every day, totally got it.

    “Obviously the company wants to spin it really positively,” a former employee who left in 2021 told Insider, adding that virtual-first meant fewer options for people who enjoyed going into the office.

    Dropbox and Houston did not immediately respond to requests for comment from Insider, sent outside regular business hours.

      I feel like this bot should include the full quote when it sees quatation marks. Here’s the full quote from Dimon(JP Morgan)

      Dimon — whose company requested some employees to be in the office five days a week and was tracking attendance by monitoring ID swipes — told the Economist in July: “I completely understand why someone doesn’t want to commute an hour and a half every day, totally got it. Doesn’t mean they have to have a job here either.”
