Amazon To Cut Management Layers, End Work From Home
Amazon To Cut Management Layers, End Work From Home
Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) CEO Andy Jassy is slashing management layers and making employees to return to the office five days a week beginning in January at the world's largest online retailer and cloud-computing company founded by billionaire Jeff Bezos.
亞馬遜.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) CEO Andy Jassy正在削減管理層並要求員工從明年1月起每週五天返回辦公室。這家由億萬富翁傑夫·貝索斯創立的世界最大的在線零售商和雲計算公司所做的更改。
The changes, sent in a memo to employees on Monday, would address what company veterans see as unnecessary meetings and layers of approvals just to get things done, Bloomberg reported.
根據彭博社的報道，這些更改是在週一向員工發出的備忘錄中提到的，旨在解決公司資深員工認爲無關緊要的會議和批准層。
Each major entity within Amazon must increase the ratio of individual contributors to managers by 15% by the end of March 2025, Jassy said. Changes also include a bureaucracy tipline for employees to raise concerns about unnecessary processes.
Jassy表示，亞馬遜的每個主要實體必須在2025年3月底之前，將個體員工與管理者的比例提高15％。更改還包括爲員工提供一個官僚機構舉報渠道，以提出對於無關流程的擔憂。
Since the pandemic ended, Amazon had required workers to badge in at least three days a week, depending on their team needs. Amazon's new return to office policy will make exceptions for extenuating circumstances or previously approved remote jobs, Jassy said.
自疫情結束以來，亞馬遜要求員工每週至少三天打卡，具體根據他們所在的團隊需求。Jassy表示，亞馬遜的新辦公室返還政策將對特殊情況或先前批准的遠程工作進行例外。

Most of Amazon's roughly 1.5 million employees worldwide are hourly employees who retrieve items and ship packages, people for whom remote work was never an option, but the company employs hundreds of thousands of office workers.
亞馬遜全球大約150萬名員工中，大多數是檢索商品和發貨包裹的小時工，對於他們來說遠程辦公從未是一個選項，但是該公司僱傭了數十萬名辦公室職員。
The changes may boost downtown foot traffic in cities where Amazon operates, such as Seattle; Bellevue, Washington; Arlington, Virginia; San Francisco; Austin, Texas; Boston; and Nashville, Tennessee.
這些更改可能提高亞馬遜所在城市的市區人流量，例如西雅圖、華盛頓貝爾維尤、弗吉尼亞阿靈頓、舊金山、德克薩斯奧斯汀、波士頓和田納西州納什維爾。
The company has already tried to get workers back in the office, an effort that workers resisted by arguing the company was inflexible and failed to show data that working in person created better outcomes.
該公司已經試圖讓員工回到辦公室，但員工反對並稱該公司缺乏靈活性，並未顯示出親自辦公可以帶來更好的結果的數據。
