Former Amazon engineer says company's 5-day return to work causes employees to rethink jobs

Published On Sep 20, 2024, 9:00 AM

Amazon's recent mandate requiring employees to return to the office five days a week is causing significant anxiety among staff, many of whom are considering leaving the company. Former employees have reported that this in-office policy, along with mixed messages from management about relocation and job security, has led them to seek remote opportunities elsewhere. This shift may ultimately benefit competitors who can offer fully remote positions, as Amazon's push for in-person work appears to be affecting employee morale and retention.
