Amazon workers protest return-to-office policy as over 500 sign letter to CEO
Over 500 Amazon workers have signed a letter to AWS CEO Matt Garman, expressing their discontent with the company's new return-to-office policy requiring employees to work in the office five days a week starting in 2025. The workers criticized Garman's claims that most employees support the policy, stating his comments do not reflect their experiences. They described the rationale for the policy as “non-data-driven” and lacking transparency. This protest highlights growing employee dissatisfaction with workplace policies at Amazon, which employs about 1.5 million people. The situation may influence how other companies approach their own return-to-office strategies.
