I work remotely and I feel like things get done faster because we’re not distracted by the office. The office has more distractions than I do at home, and most of those distractions come from other people.
That’s why for personal networking the office environment shines, other than that I don’t see any upsides.

In my opinion, big techs are becoming the dinosaurs now… the next gen companies will start remote first and won’t have these gigantic leasings and office contracts commitments. Top talents will look to work for the new companies, the same way 20 years ago it was cool to work for google or facebook.

I'm sorry, but you cannot use examples such as hairdresser and taxi driver because the nature of their work is hands-on. Tech-related work can be done anywhere from a computer. I understand hybrid models where you come into the office some days because you do need that interaction, but if the office is a noisy, open-plan atmosphere where you can't concentrate on what you are doing, productivity will surely go down.

Hi Soleyman, I worked at NYC housing department, which is a federal agency. The real estate lobbies in DC control cities like NYC and Seattle. Real estate lobbies pay congressmen and politicians give tax breaks and incentives to major employers. In March 2022, only 48 percent of NYC was occupied, yet prices were sky high - It's all about the moolah.
Bringing employees back is more about stabilizing prices.

LOL, you act like you have choice. I too had the mentality, I would never take a job if it wasn't 100% remote. In this economy? I'm back in the office...

Working in operations in Amazon India, three of my colleagues submitted their resignation this week for various reasons even our managers are applying in other companies. It was surely a bad call.

They have office rent to pay and restaurants/coffee shops near the offices rely on employees for revenue. Many downtown areas need employees to be going to office.

Simple: I WILL NOT GO. Let offices fall

Amazon doesn’t care about its Employees!!!

I’ve been looking for a job for 6 months now after I got laid off at the start of the year so if these Amazon employees are quitting I’ll happily take their place 👍

RTO makes sense when all the team members or most of stakeholders are co-located. In the past, I have experienced scenarios where I am in office 1 and my team members and stakeholders are globally located. And the idea of fixed cubicle/desk with sufficient gaps between them is long gone with flexible desk where everyone taking meeting at the same time sitting next to one another. Under these circumstances, WFH shines compared to RTO or Hybrid. If it is Hybrid, there is option to sit sufficiently away since less employees are there on a given day.

Everyone left Amazon ' And went into ministry or sports and are happier and glad they did!

[GoGoHaBin]

Soleyman, do you have a payment plan for your class? Or is it a single payment upfront?

[vsk]

As an amazon employee I am a lot more productive at home. I am working fully remote and we are not being called back. Currently only people who are working hybrid is going back to 5 days a week. Fully remote people will be under the same contract. We will continue.

[dbsql]

I would never be able to match my productivity in the office compared to being at home.

[MichaelJ-mn]

Do you think Apple and Google etc will implement the same policy?

[poliscigirliee]

The underlying truth is that they want to eliminate some employees, not through layoffs, but rather by their willingness to leave. This is the ideal way to achieve this.
