Last year, only a third of Amazon’s new hires stayed with the company for more than 90 days before quitting, being fired, or getting laid off
The report, which is based off internal research papers, slide decks, and spreadsheets from Amazon, claims that workers are twice as likely to leave by choice, rather than because they were laid off or fired. It also says that the issue is widespread throughout the company, not just with warehouse workers; from entry level roles all the way up to vice presidents, the lowest attrition rate for one of the company’s 10 tiers of employees was almost 70 percent, with the highest reaching a staggering 81.3 percent.
bezos just has to grease the right palms and hand some legislation over to the right ghouls making Amazon a national security infrastructure, then they can make it illegal for workers to strike and possibly call quitting wildcat striking and prosecute people for it
this has the ring of something completely absurd but the more I think about it the more it seems likely in the next decade
Ngl gonna need you to step away from the lathe here
"look, I'm as liberal as they come buuuuuut people just don't want to work anymore!"
We've seen the carnival of bootlickers when Bezos hints that a new facility might be built somewhere. My God, the back-breaking bending over of local and state politicians for a whiff of that sweet graft was a dictionary worthy display of obsequiousness.
