Google expects at least 10% of employees will return to the office after the July 4 vacation, and 30% of the workforce can return from work in the main office in September.

In an interview last week, Google CEO Sundar Pichai said that he didn’t want to have too many people working remotely without going to the company’s office space. Google’s office is well known for the privileges it offers employees like free dry cleaning, meals and the gym.
