Zoom Video Communications Inc., a one-time darling of the work-from-home era, is calling workers back to the office.

Employees who live near a Zoom location must be on-site two days a week, a company spokesperson said. A "hybrid approach” is most effective for Zoom, she said, because it will be in "a better position to use our own technologies, continue to innovate and support our global customers.”
