Amazon Employees for Climate Justice staged a walkout and rally of over 1,000 tech workers at Amazon’s company headquarters in Seattle on May 31. In what the organizers called, “the largest tech worker action since the COVID-19 pandemic,” another 1,000 workers joined the protest from across the U.S.

Workers were also outraged by the company’s recent mandatory return-to-work policy during the ongoing pandemic and Amazon’s layoffs of 27,000 workers, attacks being experienced by workers throughout the high-tech industry.
