fukk Jeff Bezos. Amazon pays its median worker $28,446, according to CEO pay disclosure

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

Yaw expected 6 figure salaries from warehouse jobs?

Namean. Same folks Wanna buy shyt cheap, invest in the company stocks and make profit but somehow pay above average wages.

This is a non story. Amazon just upsetting the big boys cuz they ducking taxes. They don't care bout no fukking warehouse worker... They on a smear campaign against the company right now.

 

[Illified infinitely]

The desk jobs probably at 50k to 60k. The median is def a warehouse worker. Drive a forklift you probably get 35k

"So what...they get my packages to me quick " - Coli poster making 30k a year

Monopolies are ultimately bad for our economy and more importantly our way of life.

IT Managers shouldn't make much more than a forklift driver I guess.

 

[posterchild336]

I mean I'm sure this ain't too far fetched but this needs more context. Amazon has a lot of part time workers. Are they being included in the study? What about the seasonal temps and those dudes who deliver packages?

thats what an average is..

Yup..they are pretty much making much more than a customer service rep

Then don't work there. This aint the 60s nobody's gonna pay you a decent wage for factory work. Get with the times and stop crying.

 

[posterchild336]

you have positions making well into the 6 digits, the majority of the workers in amazon are in less skilled technical positions

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

What can you do?

The economy underwent a massive structural shift over the last 20 years. With automation, A.I, and efficiency reigning as king, you have to have some type of skills nowadays.

Great wealth, requires great thief
- Some capitalist pig

No one is forced to work there and no one is forced to buy from Amazon.

 

[Wild self]

Then don't work there. This aint the 60s nobody's gonna pay you a decent wage for factory work. Get with the times and stop crying.

Enjoy America being a 3rd world nation with that mentality.

 

[re'up]

This is capitalism, and our "values", just that Amazon is on a bigger scale, the structure isn't that much different than every business operating in the country. Certainly every corporation.

Once I read about the warehouses and seasonal workers, the sickening exploitation....I'd rather order (books) from my sister's store, independently owned store in Oakland.

Funny thing is I used to order books from Amazon when I was a kid, like in 99, I still don't have an account, and I doubt I will.

The really repulsive, but everyday tragedy is how that labor feeds these people who order everything on Amazon, from batteries to baby food, it comes at an extremely high cost. It's really pretty heartbreaking when you realize there is a class that orders from Amazon, and one that works for Amazon. And that is true, and becoming more true across every industry, esp. lyft, grubhub and so on.
