Most Amazon tech workers will no longer be required to return to work at the office.
Andy Jassy, who was hand-picked by Jeff Bezos to be CEO a year ago, said in a summit Wednesday he does not have a plan to require people to return to Amazon headquarters or any other corporate Amazon office.
The move appears to be more about a new way of productivity for tech workers and less about avoiding illness. Amazon tech workers were ordered to work from home in early 2020 when COVID-19 started and began to spread.Jassy said that most tech workers have returned to physical offices but for only a few days a week. However, creative teams still meet in person.
Other tech companies like Google and Apple have ordered their tech employees back to the office. However, some workers have been pushing back. KIRO 7 was told Amazon is staying open to recruiting tech workers in remote areas as they live far away from the nearest office.
