Amazon's recent mandate requires employees to return to the office, leaving a software development engineer with limited job options within the company.
The engineer, who rejoined Amazon for a remote role, now faces the choice of relocating to a hub office, switching teams, or risking "voluntary resignation" due to the new policy.
The engineer expressed frustration, stating that the decision is a top-down mandate, and local management has no power to assist. This situation has eroded trust, as the engineer returned to work remotely.
The engineer feels angry and let down by Amazon's sudden change in policy, which has disrupted their work arrangements and career plans.
