When you work with people that always in fear of not being good enough, you yourself will never be good enough. It's an endless cycle of trying to out perfrom and get promoted.
Your jobs require you to talk constantly. Software engineering requires waaaaaaaay more quite alone focus time. We, software engineers, don’t spend our days white boarding and talking strategy in groups all day. That’s not how that works. I ask journalists to try and get view of a tech company when folks are in a office, you’ll find people are NOT talking or engaging with one another outside of the 10min early meeting that can be done via a zoom. Amazon is doing this for taxes and building value.
It's all about real estate and paying rent and it's easier to bully employees back to work place than decide to absorb the building rental cost as non employment cost. Pathetic 😢
"the work itself is the reward", god these corporate entities are delusional af. And no wonder the "reporter's" name is Karen. She's a total simp for Amazon. But even she slipped a bit when was talking about everyone pretending... urmmmm.... "believing" that it's day 1 at Amazon smh. So thankful I don't have to work at such a hellish place.
I spaced out a bit, but did they question why 3 days in the office is not enough to allow for the benefits of in-person work? Did anyone ask about the increased efficiency knowledge workers get from working in a distraction-free environment where many workers are willing to work slightly longer hours in exchange for not having to commute?
@@mikemadsen7926What kind of question is this? doing the interesting work is better than wasting gas, clogging roads, spending time in traffic, etc. ?????????
Remote Work Works. Large companies just have a lot of capital tied up in Commercial Real Estate whose value is directly proportional to its occupancy and utilization.
When organizations become too big to fail, they let people go. And in doing so, they cost a potential double-digit growth, which goes un noticed until much later.
Amazon is flat-out wrong to mandate this. No ifs, ands or buts. There have been many anecdotes about the toxic work culture at Amazon. Let's hope Amazon employees take note and leave in droves (since Amazon claims their employees the best of the best).
Only people who need their egos stroked want return to the office. I will never return to an office building and living a corporate life with their "culture" over "people" mandates.
Everyone looking forward to the gridlock and highway traffic madness again. We have all seen the reports of Amazon's just-walk-out *technology* and Zoox self-driving *technology* actually being handled by masses of low-cost workers over in India. That 5 day return to office actually means they want 20 percent of the US corporate workers to LEAVE without having to do another round of Layoffs and severance payouts, to be replaced by much cheaper labor in India offices. Good for the 'efficiency' report to shareholders but bad for US workers. Brought to you by the company famous for pey-in-bottles and crying-at-desks. ;-)
The key is when you are in the office and you over here other conversations or you can swivel your chair around and ask somebody something. You need to have that cross-pollination
Being in the office also forces you to work and push beyond what you would normally challenge yourself to do. Remote work was always a temporary thing. Companies that remain fully remote will eventually lose to companies that do not. People do not want to hear it because it doesn't fit their perception of how important they believe themselves to be.
Good. They should return to work. They also should have planned ahead instead of moving rural to save money thus driving up the cheaper market. I feel they deserve it for not thinking ahead.
Man Amazon sounds like a terrible place to work.
From what I hear it is.
There's a Southpark episode about that.

Get it on your resume and get the hell out.

Amazon has to justify buying those buildings rather than leasing.

company culture is just a bs buzzword.
That's not a trend that's gonna work for people. So amazon can just show the trend of how to make their employees leave.
Tech jobs have dried up , thousands of highly experienced people have been laid off and are looking for jobs, so many people will not leave Amazon.
Back in the office 5 days a week at Amazon is all about Amazon just showing who is in control over the employees. Amazon has a control issue. 😂

Of course not. They’re shills for the HR/Office Services/PR Axis.
But if you're going to work instead of commute what's the point you're still losing the time still have no work life balance

@@mikemadsen7926 some enjoy work. most don’t enjoy rush hour traffic, eating at subpar workplace cafeterias, etc.
she's so afraid to say anything about amazon lol
Can we finally unionize and stop letting companies control our every moves! As long as the work gets done, it’s shouldn’t matter where we are!
“If you don’t like it go” …. ok, even though Amazon holds a majority monopoly over jobs at this point smh.
Remote Work Works.
Large companies just have a lot of capital tied up in Commercial Real Estate whose value is directly proportional to its occupancy and utilization.
Agree on this wholeheartedly. If office buildings are not being utilized, they would need to take a write-down on those assets.
Imagine seeing these dystopian empty cities with nearby restaurants shutting down all so employees can get their laundry done in the morning

My company sold all their real estate before the pandemic. They are fine with working at home.

All good news. It's hard to grope my co-workers through a zoom call.

They require more of your time so you can take home less money. That seems fair. 😂
Great content! Hope this channel gets some traction
Welcome to the real world kids
Ok karen
Finally. Good.
I'm guessing you have no one in your life and it's better that way. That bitterness. Whoa.
Boooo hooooo get over it.

Yeah, the key is you need to be able to distract everyone in the vicinity of your stupid swivel chair.
