Don't work for Amazon. Problem solved.
Amazon's tech employees hired remotely during the pandemic are now stuck: they either must change everything about their lives to go into the office (mind you, they were full remote when hired) or they must find a new job in a super competitive area (made competitive by suits laying off employees elsewhere). Seriously, remote tech jobs get hundreds if not thousands of applicants per listing.
Those people are fucked.
Oh, don't worry about upper management, they can continue to work remotely - but they'll still have dedicated offices in several locations in case they are forced to travel. And that will be one less office for the schmucks who have to come into the office.
And this isn't just Amazon. This is an orchestrated push by the CEOs of many large companies, all conspiring together to claw back some control of their employees. And you'll do it because fuck you, of course you'll do it... what choice have you got?
