Amazon's Return to Office and Its Impact on Seattle
Amazon's push for employees to return to the office is causing significant concern among Seattle residents, particularly for those living near the company's headquarters. The return of office workers is expected to exacerbate already existing traffic issues in South Lake Union, where Amazon's presence transformed the area from an industrial site to its current state. Despite widespread resistance from employees regarding the push to return, company leadership seems determined to implement these changes, raising questions about the motivations behind this shift.
