Well, uh... Duh? I mean, even if people absolutely loved their jobs and their employer, not everyone is going to move because the job moves. And Amazon isn't exactly the most loved employer.
I've gotten over the idea of moving to a new location for a job. Right now I'm living in a city that I love and would not want to move out just to pursue a career opportunity.
That's definitely a new thing that's come out after COVID hit but there's no going back for me anyhow
I bought my house right before COVID. No job is getting me to move at this point, and even if they wanted to there’s no offer lucrative enough to make selling a good idea. Interest rates would need to plummet first and we know that’s not happening anytime soon.
5 billion dollars to move....
