LTIMindtree COO Nachiket Deshpande said his firm continues to retain the hybrid work model and has therefore mandated two-day work-from-office (WFO) for most associates and three-day WFO for middle management and leadership. Multiple Indian IT majors "flip-flopped" on their return-to-office plan for employees but we won't do that, Deshpande said. He added that LTIMindtree aims to strike a balance.
