> In March, less than a week after I moved, Amazon issued its RTO order.
Jassy announced that he thought that return to the office was best for the company in February and that RTO timetable was being planned group by group and details would be "finalized in the coming weeks".
No, but it was clear from Jassy's announcement middle of February (presumably before she actually moved) that it was almost certain she would eventually be called back to the office, hence the headline/quote that she had no idea doesn't seem credible (below). I'm arguing she continued to move knowing that there would be a very high chance she'd be called to the office and was ready to quit anyway.
> I moved states 5 days before we got the return-to-office order at Amazon, so I quit. I had no idea we'd be forced back into the office.
I think people confuse “indefinitely” with “forever”. They are not the same.
b) the article claims the RTO order was in March, but as the linked blog post shows, it was mid-February
