A few hundred Amazon.com Inc. employees walked off the job Wednesday to protest the company’s return-to-work policies, impact on the climate and deepest-ever round of layoffs.
The protest, organized by Amazon Employees for Climate Justice and Amazon’s Remote Advocacy group, took place at the company’s Seattle headquarters during the lunch hour.
The workers gathered under leaden skies near the Spheres, the plant-filled orbs at the heart of the corporate campus, brandishing signs saying, “Hell no, RTO!” and “Listen to your employees. Stop greenwashing.”
The groups said almost 2,000 workers globally pledged to join the walkout, a small fraction of the company’s more than 300,000 corporate personnel.
