Amazon CEO tells staff to work in office three days a week or look for another job
(www.theguardian.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Everyone remembers the peeing in bottles part of Amazon's model but the way they turn through office staff is less talked about. Amazon's business model is based on crushing their employees no matter their department, job type, or level.
Man, we really need better labor laws.
I worked at an Amazon warehouse for about 2 years, I think the only reason they couldnt chew me up is cause I took to telling people to go fuck themselves for basically everything. "Can you go to sortation" Fuck off no, we only have 3 people using pallet jacks right now, maybe if you didnt reorganize sortation into an inefficient mess so managers could pretend to do something this wouldnt be a problem.
