While Amazon claims the goal of RTO is to increase collaboration, survey finds many employees (45%) aren’t even assigned to the same office as their manager and 38% said they only worked alongside a fraction of their team members—either 20% or less.

Tim W (admin (and human)) (tim@union.place)'s status on Sunday, 22-Dec-2024 00:49:30 JST Tim W (admin (and human)) @amydiehl @blogdiva what's wild to me is that the shareholders are stupid enough to fall for it instead of holding management responsible for making bad decisions (or, y'know, understanding that circumstances change and you just have to take losses sometimes).
Instead they take it out on the #labor.
The system's propensity to perpetuate itself is just ... mind blowing. Frustrating. Depressing.
