They can take the “may” out of that verbiage because they have been proven to do this already.
They “may” lose employees to other companies that pay the same but offer WFH.
Hell I’m willing to work for less, much less, if it means WFH.
Those jobs pay more, not less. They trust you more so they give you more leeway.
I fully agree with your sentiment.
But the frustrating reality that Amazon is exploiting is almost no other companies pay as much as Amazon and allow full remote work. Even less if you’re one of the thousands of people on a work visa.
The progression isn’t Amazon -> normal role at normal company, it’s Amazon -> high growth startup or company that will worship your knowledge. Startups have a higher ceiling and the major company role may be more prestigious.
Amazon is going to push their best people out the door.
