Amazon CEO warns remote workers: Return to office or face consequences
Amazon CEO Andy Jassy has expressed frustration with employees who are not coming into the office at least three days a week, stating that it "probably won't work out" for them at the company. This comes as major tech firms like Google and Meta have also ordered staff back to the office for the majority of the working week. Jassy believes that being in the office promotes collaboration and learning from each other. The shift towards in-person work follows a series of job cuts in the tech industry, with companies acknowledging over-expansion during the pandemic. Amazon faced internal opposition, including a petition and a worldwide walkout, against its return-to-office mandate.
