I didn’t see a description of the policy in the article. Did I miss it? It would be helpful context.

Short answer is 3 days a week in the office.
Long answer is effectively things will go back to how they were pre-pandemic. Except you now have to average 3 days a week in the office instead of the 5 that it was before. Some people can get exceptions, but it's basically going back to 2019 rules where the default is office.
The funny part for me is that if they had of announced these new rules in 2019, they would have been heralded as forward thinking employee first visionaries... but because it is a step back from the temporary COVID rules, it's all pitchforks and walkouts.

Of course, that's why they refuse to give even an inch except when they absolutely have to -- because people will fight to retain something that benefits them much more than they will fight to gain a possible benefit they have never experienced.
