Amazon employees push CEO Andy Jassy to drop return-to-office mandate
I must be one of the very very few software engineers that would prefer to RTO. (I'm not at Amazon, btw).<p>I do enjoy the flexibility of being able to occasionally work from home. But I miss the bustling office culture, going out to lunch with coworkers, forming friendships with people from the office who don't necessarily work in the same department/team.<p>Most days, I go into town and work from a WeWork (because it's nice to have a daily change of scenery), but 95% of the time, I'm the only person there (in an office with nine desks). Before the pandemic there were 80~100 people in our office.<p>Sigh...
