Nearly 3 in 4 Amazon workers say they're considering looking for a new job following CEO Andy Jassy's recent memo announcing a full-time return-to-office.
Yea but moving out of country doesn’t normally come with you also getting to work less hours for more pay. Leaving Amazon for a competitive offer does.
High performers can do whatever they want, giving them a reason to leave like this is silly. Treat your employees like they are too immature to balance their work and life and you will end up with immature employees.
At the end of the day the question is do you want results or do you want butts in seats. If you run a factory it’s fair to want butts in seats. If you run a creative endevor you should want results.
What’s the logistics of this? I work remote 3 days as a software dev and I’m hoping to eventually get full WFH.
How does one just move to another country to work from there. Do you need a lot of cash on hand to make the move or can you just be a nomad kind and do it.
It’s not an apples to apples comparison. The fact is that many Amazon employees can make 25-50% more, with better work-life balance, better benefits, a less toxic environment, and the ability to work from home.

Ayyyy I would be there with you if I could bring all my kids with me. I dislike 20-30 flight time to see my kids. And it’s also wasteful.
