McKinsey & Co. is considering upping the amount of days it expects staffers across North America to spend in the office each week as the consultancy joins a raft of large firms looking to limit remote work.

Senior partners in Miami and Boston told employees in town halls recently that they may soon be expected to return to the office more often, according to people familiar with the matter. The stricter stance would likely also apply to employees who are “on the beach,” a term used to describe consultants that are in-between projects, the people said, declining to be identified as the deliberations are private.
