For a company that is supposedly data driven like Amazon likes to tout, they have zero data that RTO would provide the benefits they claim[0]. They even admitted as much[1].

I wouldn't be shocked if one day some leaked memos or emails come to light that prove it was all about control and/or backdoor layoffs, despite their PR spin that it isn't (what competent company leader would openly admit this?)

Open office floor plans are sufficient evidence that "data driven" is bullshit when it comes to management, corporate aesthetics, and cost saving. Obviously there's no data to back RTO.
