Amazon will require its corporate employees to return to the office five days a week, a shift from the previous hybrid model of three days in the office and two days of remote work. CEO Andy Jassy believes that in-person collaboration fosters better teamwork and creativity, citing improvements in brainstorming and connection among teams. This move reflects a broader trend in major companies reevaluating remote work policies, making the shift from pandemic-induced flexibility to stricter in-office requirements. With significant backlash expected from employees who previously protested against even less stringent return-to-office mandates, this decision may spark further debate about workplace culture and employee satisfaction.
