Amazon adding 2,000 jobs at NYCs Lord & Taylor building
Amazon said it plans to house more than 2,000 employees at Manhattans historic Lord & Taylor building under a nationwide expansion of its corporate offices.
The Seattle-based e-tailing giant said Tuesday it will hire the workers to fill the landmark tower on Fifth Avenue over the next few years as it grows its Big Apple tech hub a plan that looks like a bold, long-term bet on offices, even as the pandemic continues to force most of its employees to work from home.
The e-commerce colossus is also expanding its corporate offices in Dallas, Denver, Detroit, Phoenix and San Diego with plans to add about 1,500 jobs across those cities, according to a press release.
Amazon and other tech giants have let employees work from home amid lockdowns aimed at controlling the coronavirus pandemic, which has also driven a surge in demand for online shopping thats led Amazons profits to explode.
