Your comment seems to be addressing employees that were temporarily virtual and now are required to go into the office. That's not the issue at hand here. Amazon hired employees with jobs that were explicitly stated as being permanently remote and would not be revoked. They have "Virtual Office" listed in the company directory. Those virtual employees are now being asked to relocate to areas where they must also come in 3 days a week. For example an employee working remotely for AWS in Missouri now must uproot their lives and move to Seattle despite the hiring "contract" (using this term loosely) stating the job was fully virtual.
- SilverBirch 3y agoOh I totally agree - I'm actually someone who changed jobs during the pandemic and now works for a company that wants to be 100% office but hired me basically 100% remote. It was a massive fuck up, they never should've offered that. It doesn't change the fact that they are going to insist everyone comes back though, and good luck ever holding senior leadership accountable for anything. They should've thought through the implications of telling people they can literally move out into the wilderness in 2020 and what that would mean if things changed in the future. But they didn't.
