This is my personal take, given that I work at Amazon. Here's the landscape of people I interact with:
* Supply Chain - Bellevue, Vancouver, Austin
* AWS / other businesses - Seattle, occasionally elsewhere (NYC, Boston, HQ2)
* Foreign business teams - Luxembourg (EU), occasionally elsewhere (India)
* Team members on my team - Bellevue, Seattle, Vancouver, and elsewhere
Tell me how we're going to get all of these groups together for "hallway talk". At best, you can get a team in one locality, but even that is difficult with immigration challenges.
- bradknowles 4y agoI'm the only person from my team that works in the state of Texas. We have only one other person who works in the same timezone. We have others in Seattle and the DC area. RTO might make sense for those in Seattle or the DC area, but not for anyone else. And we would all have to be on the same teleconference calls anyway, because we also work with a bunch of people on other teams at other places around the world. There's no telling how this is going to work out. At least, not yet.
