Been seeing more and more jobs labeled hybrid when they’re really just full-time in-office with permission to leave early on Fridays. One even said “hybrid = 4 days in office minimum.” That’s just… a commute. I’m fine going in when needed, but this bait-and-switch is exhausting. Why are companies still playing games with the word hybrid?

Hybrid doesn’t mean anything anymore. Just companies trying to get in through the filters you are applying to the job search. I’d also say the same for remote, they use that and are still in the office multiple days of the week. That’s not what that means!

4 days is a full rto, even pre covid a lot of people wfh on fridays, 3 days is a true hybrid approach. Gotta love company bs spin!

Ya I agree

It's now been 3 weeks since the interview and I still haven't heard back from the team other than the odd HR email saying they are following up with them. Is there something going on internally, I.e hiring freeze in the London office atm?
