I’m a full stack engineer and founder based in San Francisco, also open to remote. I’ve spent over ten years building products in fintech, SaaS, and edtech. I co-founded a YC-backed startup that raised more than $2M and got enterprise adoption, and I was the founding engineer at Lendtable where I grew the team from zero to ten and built systems that handled millions of dollars while also boosting sales conversions. I love early stage work, taking ideas from nothing to launch, modernizing messy code, and shipping fast across the ENTIRE stack
Take this with a grain of salt but I read on a similar Reddit post the return to office is mainly due to the tax incentives the city/county/state provided Amazon for having their offices located there. The Reddit user made a claim which Amazon could only receive those tax benefits if their workers actually worked in person at the location.

I can see this being a valid argument for return to office for a lot of corporations, if its actually true. The tax benefits are too good to pass up and in office has been the status quo forever.
This reminds me of similar issues I've encountered as a software engineer. I first ran into this issue about a decade ago, albeit not because of Grammerly,but due to some specific gif causing web app to crash. Both times the gifs were animated. Happened years apart and at different companies.
I see some comments highlighting RAM, which could totally have been the issue. Totally looking forward to a follow up to this later down the road, I am sure this isn't going to be the last time we hear of this.
