Amazon has announced a shift in its return-to-office policy, requiring corporate employees to be in the office five days a week starting in January. This replaces the previous three-day requirement and will apply to all staff. CEO Andy Jassy outlined plans to streamline Amazon’s corporate structure by reducing management layers and increasing the ratio of individual contributors to managers by 15% by the first quarter of 2025. Amazon shares showed a slight dip in afternoon trading following the announcement.
