Work from home ends in Amazon

He was previously the biggest proponent of WFH. But he recently said this: Our early analysis of performance data suggests that engineers who either joined Meta in-person and then transferred to remote or remained in-person performed better on average than people who joined remotely. This analysis also shows that engineers earlier in their career perform better on average when they work in-person with teammates at least three days a week Looks like most companies will kill WFH long term 🤕

Not trying to be a critic here, nor trying to tarnish the reputation. But just wondering why does employee friendly policies like these change so quickly? Do investors and leaders get FOMO? Hey Amazon has called everyone to office so let's do it too. Or does the Work from anywhere policy was temporarily to attract good talent? FYI, this remote policy was scrapped within 1 year of implementing it.

On a scale of 1 to 10 with 1 being not tiring at all and 10 being you being left with no energy at the end of the day. Please comment your industry, role, YoE and your rating (else the results could be confounded).

This is absolutely meme material!! They declared that 75% of employees will work from home by 2025, and before even 2025, they reverted that and now claiming everyone to come to office all 5 days!! I mean not even Hybrid, but all 5 days!! News mentioning recent report of asking employees to come all 5 days- https://m.economictimes.com/tech/information-tech/tcs-asks-employees-to-return-to-office-five-days-a-week-may-end-work-from-home-from-october/articleshow/104049381.cms

I am an engineer and have been working remotely since the pandemic started. Initially, it was great as I could save time by not commuting to office but now I feel like I am missing out on something. I don't know what it is but I just feel like I need to be in an office environment to thrive. Maybe it's the social aspect or the structure of having set hours, but whatever it is, I can't seem to find the same level of motivation when working from home. Anyone else feeling this way? Any tips on how to make remote work more productive and enjoyable?

Zomato is strongly discouraging WFH. How do you guys see it when it's competitor Swiggy allows remote work?
