Amazon will require employees return to the office 3 days a week 3 years ago
I don't want to descend into boomer-bashing, however it is worth acknowledging that the S-team and most senior managers are boomers who bought cheap property that is big enough and close enough to work to raise families. The only chance a lot of young Amazonians have to raise a family is by remote working outside the city. It is quite easy for the S-team and empty nesters to mandate an office return when they are the least impacted by it. Even if the older employees relocated out of the city, they still got to ride the property boom. In contrast this decision forces young people to live (and presumably buy) where property prices have appreciated the fastest.
