Mr Jassy said that executives had had time to observe the pros and cons of different ways of working.
" I know that for some employees, adjusting again to a new way of working will take some time, " he wrote. " But I'm very optimistic about the positive impact this will have in how we serve and invent on behalf of customers, as well as on the growth and success of our employees. "
