This is how it was before you WFH, so the argument was that cost is assumed anyway. This little WFH break was just some bonus money you free'd up. I don't agree

  Monetary cost is one thing, but no parent can simply pull their kids out of school right now and expect them to have a decent transition to another school. Rental contracts aren't typically reviewed each month, and in some places with high demand it's not possible to just find an apartment in a couple of weeks. As Amazon frames their return to office, it's impossible to be met by some people.

    I suspect that's by design. My gut tells me that Amazon wants a bunch of people to quit, to try to avoid another embarrassing round of layoffs and so that they don't have to pay severance.

      Yep - this is constructive dismissal for sure, but in the US there isn't any general law against it.
