00:00Big changes are coming to Amazon. Starting January, Amazon employees will be saying goodbye
00:05to the hybrid work model and heading back to the office full-time. That's right, Amazon's
00:10CEO Andy Jassy just announced that the company is ending its remote work policy.
00:15Now this isn't the first time Amazon's office policies have caused a stir. Last year,
00:20employees at the Seattle headquarters staged protests when remote work was scaled back,
00:25and tensions have been running high ever since.
00:27So why the big shift? Jassy believes that being in the office is crucial for collaboration
00:32and innovation. He's concerned that Amazon's intense startup culture is getting watered
00:37down with too much flexibility.
00:38But here's the debate. While Amazon pushes back to office policies, others, like the
00:43UK government, are moving toward making flexible working a right from day one. The world is
00:48still split on what works best.
00:50So is Amazon leading a return-to-office revolution or just bucking the trend?
