One of Amazon's (AMZN.O) top executives defended the new, controversial 5-day-per-week in-office policy on Thursday, saying those who do not support it can leave for another company.

Speaking at an all-hands meeting for AWS, unit CEO Matt Garman said nine out of 10 workers he has spoken with support the new policy, which takes effect in January, according to a transcript reviewed by Reuters.

Those who do not wish to work for Amazon in-office five days per week can quit, he suggested.

How would that work? People are just going to stay home in front of a disconnected PC and somehow not get fired?

Why would the PC be disconnected?

If the company doesn't want you to work from home they're not going to let you connect to their system.

That's constructive dismissal
