Not sure why this is news - Amazon is the first company to embrace a hybrid work environment, way before the pandemic... Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday - work from the office. Saturday and Sunday - work from home.


It may be a joke, but this kind of treating employees made it harder and harder for them to justify going through the pain of relocating close to an office with huge property prices around it.


Ex-Amazon here. The joke hits too close to be funny. Plenty of people would also do on-call or other work from home in the evenings or early mornings.


I see what you did there. It hurts because it’s true.


Well now alexa can be supervising them and ensure they stick to their 12 hours of work schedule


Amazon is also really great at creating a shared company culture: their engineers now pee in plastic bottles


At least credit Blind ;)
