Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

On the evening of March 24, Beijing time, it was reported that Amazon insisted that employees return to the office in May, despite 30,000 employees signing against it.

Amazon CEO Andy Andy Jassy announced last month that starting in May, the company would return to its pre-epidemic model, with most office workers coming to the office at least three times a week.

Amazon employees expressed dissatisfaction with the decision. To that end, they drafted a petition calling on Amazon to reconsider the policy. Today, about 30,000 workers have signed the petition opposing the return to office policy, which accounts for about 10 per cent of Amazon's workforce.

Even so, Amazon will stick to its original decision. Amazon HR executive Beth Galetti (Beth Galetti) said the petition was shared with CEO Jassi's executive team last week and the company decided to continue with its return to the office program.

"given our large workforce and a wide range of businesses and customers, we realize that this shift may take time," Galetti said. but we believe it will bring long-term benefits, improve our ability to serve our customers, strengthen our culture, and train and develop our staff. "

In fact, in addition to Amazon, other technology companies have also encountered some resistance in pushing for offline resumption of work. For example, Apple also requires employees to come to the office at least three times a week.

It has been reported recently that Apple is strengthening its offline return to work policy by tracking employees' punch-in records. If you go back to the office less than three times a week, the employee will be warned and even at risk of being fired.
