Facebook parent company Meta Platforms Inc., which emerged as an outspoken advocate of remote work during the pandemic, is encouraging employees to come back to the office.

Some early analysis "suggests that engineers who either joined Meta in-person and then transferred to remote or remained in-person performed better on average than people who joined remotely,” Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg said in a statement Tuesday. Zuckerberg cautioned that the data requires further study, but encouraged employees to "find more opportunities to work with your colleagues in person” in the meantime.
