Amazons $19 starting pay is well above industry standard as well as the health care day one. You could do much much worse.

Their fulfillment centers are where joy goes to die. $15 an hour to be a human robot for 40-60 hours per week doesn’t sound like a great way to spend your time on this planet.

It’s people like you that make everything suck. Fucking “Race to the bottom” cheerleaders

Let me guess, your someone who makes well north of $19/hr telling the plebs to be happy they have cake?

I just left a job that paid $50/hr for one that pays $17/hr and I’ve never been happier. If the work conditions suck the money just isn’t worth it.

Read about PIP, Focus, and Pivot, and you’ll see that their corporate centers aren’t much better.
Imagine that every year, regardless of layoffs and people quitting, your employer tries to fire 5-10% of the entire corporate workforce. On top of this, as some people naturally manage to perform well when under pressure, imagine the number of threatened people doubling or even tripling. Now, imagine that every single year.
It’s no wonder that some tech companies don’t like hiring people that used to work at Amazon, particularly managers.
