AWS CEO Matt Garman defended the return-to-office policy, suggesting that those unhappy with it could seek employment elsewhere: ‘If there are people who just don’t work well in that environment and don’t want to, that’s okay, there are other companies around.’ Garman emphasized his comments weren't meant to be harsh, but rather to cultivate a collaborative environment, indicating that in-person work is essential for AWS innovation on products.
During an earlier fireside chat, Garman discussed how AI is reshaping the role of software engineers, implying that innovation might replace traditional coding: 'AI changes the role of a software engineer and innovation will replace coding.' This reflects AWS's perspective on the evolving landscape of tech jobs and the accompanying shifts in work habits and expectations.
