Amazon return-to-office mandate isn't a 'backdoor layoff,' CEO says
Briefly

In an all-hands meeting, Andy Jassy reassured employees that the new policy requiring five days in the office isn’t a 'backdoor layoff,' insisting it’s essential for the company's health.
Matt Garman stated that if employees are unhappy with the new in-office policy, they can 'go and find another company if you want to,' showing Amazon's lack of tolerance for discontent.
An open letter signed by over 500 employees challenged Jassy's claim of widespread support, labeling the policy's justification as 'non-data-driven' and calling for a reassessment of the mandate.
Jassy and Garman faced significant backlash from employees who expressed that the shift to a five-day requirement does not reflect their true feelings and could disrupt work-life balance.
