Amazon Delays RTO Mandate for Workers Due to Space
> leaders across the tech industry have admitted RTO mandates were partly intended to trim headcount
It seems like they’re getting the desired result, and not actually backfiring?
Yeah yeah yeah. There has been a literal exodus from tech companies in the past 3 years, since the word RTO was invented. Nobody works at any of these companies, and their HR is literally kidnapping people from trams, forcing them to work for them, right? And every 3 days there is a new article and research saying that even though everyone has left, the remaining headcount is about to leave too (even though the remaining headcount is converging to 0).
Or maybe not. Maybe some of them really want to leave. But if they failed to do in the past 3 years, maybe it's to think a bit, why is that.
