Amazon said Tuesday it plans to hire 3,500 additional workers in cities across the United States. This move commits the e-commerce giant to a significant expansion of office space at a time when others in the tech industry are embracing telecommuting indefinitely.
The new hires will add to Amazon's efforts in cloud computing, advertising, smart assistants and grocery delivery, among other areas, the company said in a blog post. The office expansions will take place in New York, Dallas, Detroit, Denver, Phoenix and San Diego, reflecting a $1.4 billion investment and more than 905,000 square feet of additional office space.
