Amazon ends remote work for corporate staff worldwide, sparks controversy

Amazon has sparked controversy by scrapping remote work options for its corporate employees, affecting hundreds of thousands of staff worldwide. The decision has led to widespread discontent, particularly at the company’s Seattle headquarters.

Last year’s tightening of remote work policies triggered a staff protest, which resulted in the organizer’s termination, sparking allegations of unfair retaliation. The dispute is now being investigated by labor officials, according to BBC reports.
