I hate to break it to you, but plenty of Amazon employees work weekends too, especially when big launch dates are coming up.
Source: Work in an org at Amazon where people have paged us regarding feature work on the weekend.
That's the joke. We know Amazon is known for soul crushing long hours and weekends.
Eh, that part is known, but lately there are teams that have "officially" opened weekends as fair game. My org recently sent out an email stating that weekends would count as in-office days to entice people to work at the office to bump their RTO figures up.
