Good grief.

I've enjoyed using their services for years., but this article in the NYTimes today makes me seriously question doing business with them in the future.

I wouldn't work for a company like this unless there was no other choice.

Disturbing article. The ambulances stationed at their factories to deal with heat stroke because of their refusal to install air conditioning is fucked up.

[Drama Queen]

One excutive allowed to speak

... her last name was Rommel. You can't make that shit up.

Did you read the comments section? Apparently, Bezos wife is a leader of some anti-bullying campaign. Really. You can't make that shit up.

Getting hired by Amazon is like hitting the lottery for "The Hunger Games."

I won't update my Amazon mobile app because it wants access to my contacts. Fuck dat.

Wow. I'm glad I'm exiting corporate America soon

scary

This article is more than just disturbing

It's a pure vision of hell on earth.


The one very good aspect of Amazon seems to be that it's manages to take 1000's of stone assholes out of the "regular" workforce so normal employees would not have to deal with them.


I cannot imagine going to work each day and be surrounded by your fellow back stabbing assholes.

I've worked in similar environs....

Good grief.

...many of my later years in the software industry were a lot like the article described.

The whole thing brought back bad memories and reminded me why I got out and have never looked back.

Brutal on so many levels.

[Drama Queen]

They're not assholes

Thery're known in the community as Amaholes.

Jeff Bozos fights back

...that someone isn't seeing his world in the same light.

Bing bing, bong bong.

[Overbrook]

His reply is pathetic

...that someone isn't seeing his world in the same light.

"Why here's a statement from one of our very senior HR managers, who would be in line to have his testicles fed to fire ants if he doesn't say the right thing."

[Raptor]

I like the part....

"Why here's a statement from one of our very senior HR managers, who would be in line to have his testicles fed to fire ants if he doesn't say the right thing."

Where he mentions "you can work anywhere you want".

..my experiences in the corporate world is that is a polite threat and invitation to leave.


Riccardo I don't know about Yul Bryner but Dr Evil is somewhere in the family tree.

Bing Bing,Bong Bong!
