As lockdown eases and big financial firms roll out plans to get back to normal, their employees say: No, thanks.

In an exclusive Financial News survey of over 100 senior City executives, just 15% said they wanted to work in the office full time once Covid-19 lockdown lifts. A large majority — around 66% — said that they want to continue to work from home part time, with two to three days in the office the preferred option.
