Amazon Buys Office Space in 6 US Cities

In contrast with other major tech peers, who are embracing remote work, , Amazon.com Inc is expanding its office space in six cities in the United States, as it seeks to bring back its workers to their desks. “We are looking forward to returning to the office,” said Amazon Vice President of Workforce Development Ardine Williams, while extolling the virtues of office-based work. The company will reportedly add 900,000 square feet of office space at its hubs situated in New York, Phoenix, San Diego, Denver, Detroit, and Dallas. The company said it has acquired the Lord & Fifth Avenue building in New York where it plans to create 2,000 new jobs and open a 630,000 square foot office.
