Amazon delays office return policy for thousands of workers

Amazon has delayed the return-to-office dates for some corporate employees due to space limitations.

The affected employees are located in seven cities, including Austin, Dallas, and Phoenix, with delays extending as far as May 2025.

This development follows Amazon’s mandate for a full return to the office announced in September.

Amazon clarified that the delays are not due to a lack of general space, but rather the need to adapt existing layouts for full-time operations.
