Amazon CEO Andy Jassy warns remote workers: ‘It’s probably not going to work out for you’::Amazon CEO Andy Jassy told employees who defy his edict to return to the office three days a week that “it’s probably not going to work out for you.”
I kinda hate this shit tbh, what they are doing is paying us less and forcing us to move to more and more high cost areas to work “in the office”. I kinda honestly think back to the office is a way to lay off a ton of people with unemployment.
Jassy told his employees that he spoke to scores of other CEOs and that “virtually all of them” preferred having their employees back in the office.
CEOs try not to think they’re the center of the world, the challenge.
In other unbiased polling, the wolf spoke to all the other wolves in the pack and they all prefer that the sheep be eaten.
“Should workers be subjected to pointless and dehumanizing drudgery that serves no practical purpose? Find out what this panel of five overpaid CEOs think, after the break.”
I spoke with virtually all of the workers, and none of them want to pay rent. Yet here we are.
CEOs can get bent through a videocall

Lol, Andy ain’t gonna work for me
I think my favorite part of the Amazon RTO is the fact that there are many offices that charge you to park there
This is common in dense urban locations; parking is expensive, and getting free parking just for working somewhere is not expected at all.
Uh, maybe, but it is also typical in healthcare and hospitals regardless of their location so your point while technically true is not valid here.
Source: i worked for 10 years at 4 suburban hospital locations with their own parking lots and i always paid for parking, every. fucking. day.
That’s still not ok. It’s just normalized.
I’m confused, my comment is not valid because amazon is a hospital now?
Nah, I’m fine at home.
It’s the commercial real estate mortgage backed securities market. If everyone doesn’t pay office rent the collateralized debt of those places goes kaput, the security implodes like 2008 and the banking industry goes under.
These CEOs are all invested. They don’t care about productivity, it’s all about saving their investments.
I Say they should get fucked. I don’t see why somebody 's bad investment is my problem.
Maybe they should be better business men and should have foreseen this.
and the banking industry goes under.
Which translates to the banking industry learning some lessons and becoming more efficient. Yes, please.
Other than that, some drop in realty prices is welcome.
The only thing they’ll learn is the date their next rubberstamped bailout check from the government is going to come.
Maybe tech workers will finally unionize
Too many libertarians in tech. Will never happen.
Source. In tech. Not libertarian.
Nah, we’re still high on our own farts to realise they can turn foul rather quickly.
The mentality of these people are like slave owners.
More likely that it doesn’t work out for Jassy. Certain Amazon units are underperforming under his leadership, and I wouldn’t be shocked if his time at Amazon didn’t last that much longer.
That’s a really nice way of threatening to take away the livelihood and health insurance of people doing work for you.
Who tf would even work for Amazon?
If you pay my commute.
And also start the compensated-hours clock the moment I step into the car. We’re giving you eight hours a day, not 12 now.
Gonna need a hot lunch provided, laundry on-site, dog walkers, child care, a gym and a space where I can play guitar when I’m on a break
Oooh you wanted me to give all that up for nothing? In that case you can get bent, get fucked, roll over and get fucked again. I left three jobs over RTO mandates. Every time I left it was for more money. Now I’m at a place that doesn’t even have an office, just Google meet and a PO box for physical mail.
Given how many millions of people must have used Amazon to order stuff to work from home over the past 3+ years, this is a really weird position to hold. You’d think this guy would be all about everyone kitting out their home office spaces.
Get bent, Andy.
Amazon employees who refused to relocate near main offices of their teams were told they either have to find a new job internally or leave the company through a “voluntary resignation.”
How dumb does he think people are? This just makes me angry because they’re probably going to get away with it too.
lmao, “voluntary resignation” is hilarious. If you plan to purge everyone who won’t relocate, you’re gonna have to do a layoff. This isn’t one of those layoffs that will impress investors, because it won’t represent efficiency or cost savings, but instead corporate dysfunction.
If your workers aren’t voluntarily relocating to return to the office, they’re certainly not going to voluntarily forfeit their unemployment benefits by quitting. They’ll just stop working and wait for the pink slip.
Unless they plan to attach a severance more valuable that unemployment benefits to the resignation, they’re fucking dreaming. Even so, that would be a hilarious misstep to offer Amazon employees a voluntary paid exit, because it would undoubtedly result in an unsustainable wave of resignations across the org.
Why would you quit? Continue working from home while lining up a new job. Or, if they don’t specify how long you have to be in on those 3 days, just clock in and go back home an hour later. Game the system, make it work for you. They do.
