Thread regarding Amazon.com layoffs

Return to Office (RTO) LP's by Andy. The S-Team Has Run Out of STEAM!

Customer Obsession

  • make employees be late for meetings because they're stuck in traffic on their way to RTO

Ownership

  • blame employees for productivity losses when they RTO. Reach unregretted attrition targets.

Invent and Simplify

  • don't use employee feedback data, pretend RTO is the answer - one size fits all

Are Right, A Lot

  • Bad grammar - need a noun! Amazon plunged 51% in 2022. 18000 layoffs. More employees leaving.

Learn and Be Curious

  • Try a naive RTO and watch how many employees voluntarily leave for WFH!

Hire and Develop the Best

  • Prepare so many well-qualified employees for their next employer after the RTO takes effect!

Insist on the Highest Standards

  • Make employees pay out of their pockets for their RTO commute

Think Big

  • Think of all the hospitals that will benefit when employees are physically attacked by lunatics and catch COVID during RTO madness.

Bias for Action

  • Don't consult HR or employees. Like the layoffs, just "announce" RTO.

Frugality

  • Rather than selling offices and breaking leases for cash, pay to maintain offices.

Earn Trust

  • Contradict yourself about your previous posture on RTO. Use carefully planted questions for All Hands meetings.

Dive Deep

  • Only consult your inner circle (S-Team) about the effect of RTO.

Have Backbone; Disagree and Commit

  • Contradict yourself about your previous posture on RTO. Lie to your employees about your intentions.

Deliver Results

  • Tell your shareholders how AMAZING your OPEX reductions are after layoffs and RTO attrition.

Strive to be Earth’s Best Employer

  • 'Best' in terms of layoff counts (18000+) and RTO-attributed attrition - yes!

Success and Scale Bring Broad Responsibility

  • The more you scale RTO, the more RTO-attributed attrition you will get! And then hire after the hiring pause and repeat.

Old LP: are right, a lot!
New LP: are misunderstood, and underrated, A LOT!

Amazon CEO Andy Jassy issues a rallying cry to his remaining workers after mass layoffs: ‘We will be misunderstood and underrated’

Oh yeah!! Gaslighting. You had the biggest yearly losses. Resign and call Jeff to reinstitute WFH.
