Comment on Amazon tech workers leaving for other jobs in response to return to office mandate

This is pessimistic trash not worth posting.

No, Amazon is still very dependent on their software engineers, and no, it’s actually quite easy to move cloud offerings and they face stiff competition from both Azure and GCP amongst others.

Literally every virtually every single internal piece of HR and management software at Amazon is written by software teams at Amazon. You fundamentally do not understand how big tech companies operate if you think they can afford to hemmorage engineering talent without impacting their bottom line in a multitude of ways.

You fundamentally do not understand how big tech companies operate if you think they can afford to hemmorage engineering talent without impacting their bottom line in a multitude of ways.

Evidently Amazon doesn’t either then since, you know, they’re literally doing it.

  So your opinion is that Amazon’s leadership decisions are always perfect and they have perfect insight into their company and foresight? That leadership of a tech company has never before undervalued the importance of their engineering staff, or how willing they were to quit in the face of an RTO mandate?

    I think they absolutely know how willing their employees are to quit. It’s been demonstrated over and over again in the tech industry for the last couple years. It is is far more likely that they’re counting on it, than are somehow all being blindsided by it.
