Amazon employees plan mass walkout to protest against company policies

Amazon has asked its employees to be back in offices at least three days per week after the company mandated its return-to-office policy on May 1. The e-commerce giant has also cut jobs of 27,000 employees in two layoff announcements. The new policies implemented by the company have caused an uproar among its staff. Nearly 2,000 Amazon employees were reportedly set to participate in a walk-out at Amazon’s headquarters in Seattle. According to a report by Reuters, these employees were protesting against layoffs and the company’s return-to-work mandate. Amazon has more than 65,000 corporate workers in Seattle.
