Chairslinger Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Just now, ManUtdRedDevils said: I am not excusing this kind of behavior in other companies, but it makes it even more egregious when someone like fucking Amazon does it. Amazon is not "working on a razor thin margin" here. They're owner is super villain level ultra wealthy, and they have their employees hustling and cutting corners like it's an 80's movie montage of a group of plucky kids trying to save the local pizza restaurant. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spawn_of_Apathy Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 So I’ve been seeing ads on YouTube where Amazon is now saying you can get “up to $20/hour” for their warehouse jobs. Before only promising $15. they must be having a difficult time finding people with their current level of notoriety. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God forbid Verizon ever fully out sources my job but I'd never sign up for Amazon. 15 dollars an hour sounds good until you find out what it entails.

Air_Delivery Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Anytime people gloat about a billionaires unrealized net worth dropping I chuckle. I remember people mocking Zuckerberg for losing 20% of his net worth when Facebook took a shit a few years ago. Facebook has more than doubled since then. 10 bucks says he will not only recover that "loss" but will post all time highs after next Christmas.

Ghost_MH Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 I love this statement from Amazon so much... Amazon Worker Email to Jeff Bezos Exposed Huge Payroll Issues: Report WWW.BUSINESSINSIDER.COM "I'm crying as I write this email," Tara Jones, an Amazon worker, wrote to Jeff Bezos, The New York Times reported. Quote "A lot of times, because we've optimized for the customer experience, we've been focused on that," Reyes said. She added that the company was working to address "pain points" and "pay issues." She also said the automatic firings were "the most dire issue that you could have." "We know we're treating employees like less than human, but that's only because you all, the customer, are so amazing and deserve it."
