Amazon's office policy sparks questions over employee retention and productivity
Briefly

Starting January 2, Amazon will require employees to work in the office five days a week, ending its previous hybrid arrangement that allowed remote work two days weekly.
CEO Andy Jassy's memo indicates that 'barring extenuating circumstances,' in-person attendance is now mandatory, aligning Amazon with companies like Tesla that enforce similar policies.
Data shows that among eligible workers, hybrid work remains prevalent; 42.6% maintain a hybrid schedule while 35% are entirely onsite and 22.4% work remotely.
Brad Bell notes hybrid policies are beneficial for worker attraction and retention, though some companies hesitated to enforce full-time presence due to labor shortages.
