Andy Jassy also said the company's planned return-to-office isn't aimed at mollifying city policy makers.
In an internal meeting, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy responded to recent criticism from many employees about the company’s new plan for a full return to the office in January. The mandate means that as the beginning of the new year, almost all employees will have to be in the office five days a week.
Jassy said the aim is not to force any resignations among staffers or to satisfy decision-makers in cities, which were among the allegations made by angry employees, Reuters reports.
Employees have also objected that return-to-work plan is stricter than arrangements at other large tech companies and that it will make work less efficient due to commuting times. Jassy previously said his goal is to increase efficiency at work and promote collaboration and innovation.
