"Companies are moving away from fully remote work policies, according to new data, with hybrid setups gaining traction and return-to-office (RTO) requirements emerging as the most common model ― and Dallas is no exception. Nationally, 87% of jobs are now entirely in-office, according to a JobLeads report, which evaluated more than 5 million United States job postings. Despite steady demand, hybrid and fully remote roles suffered a dramatic decline, accounting for only 7% and 6%, respectively."
"Dallas showed similar findings: The JobLeads report found that 85% are fully in-office positions, while hybrid and exclusively remote policies represent a 9% and 6%, respectively. The drop in flexible work arrangements isn't accidental. The COVID-19 pandemic popularized remote work worldwide, but the golden era of working from home is coming to an end. Companies have leaned into RTO, seeking better collaboration, culture and mentoring as their main reasons."
Nationally, 87% of jobs are entirely in-office while hybrid and fully remote roles account for 7% and 6%. Dallas mirrors national trends with 85% fully in-office, 9% hybrid, and 6% remote. Companies are increasingly instituting return-to-office policies to boost collaboration, workplace culture, and mentoring. Availability of hybrid and remote options fluctuates with job-market strength, increasing when hiring demand is high and worker leverage grows. Since the pandemic peak, the jobs market has cooled, layoffs have risen, flexible-location roles have declined, and many large firms now require four to five in-office days weekly. About 23% of applicants prefer remote-only roles.
