As you're speaking from your own experience, have you already worked in an Amazon warehouse ?

[_3u10]

I haven't worked in one owned by Amazon, but I've worked in a warehouse. As far as I know most of them are about 50C warmer than the ones I worked in, as far as I know, there's no 80kg amazon packages frozen at -25C so I'd say they have it pretty easy.

That warehouse certainly didn't have robots to bring us our packages for scanning by laser gun either.

Did any of your colleagues die of overworking?

When I was there the only death was at another warehouse, dude ended up with a fork lift fork through his chest.

Friend of the family mopped of a colleague after a barrel of acid dropped from the top rack and split at the top of the forklift cab.

People in Czechia say Amazon offers the best wage and working conditions of all other warehouse businesses. I imagine it's similar in Poland.

I heard similar opinions about Amazon warehouses in Poland, but it's anecdotal evidence and shouldn't be used instead of statistics.

[emteycz]

Yeah, real statistics must be made. However this opinion is so universal and frequently voiced by the workers that not sharing it would be just as wrong as relying purely on anecdata.

Name five.

[emteycz]

I am not a warehouse worker.

[jdc]

I mean who is saying this?

[emteycz]

The society here is not too divided. It's normal to meet, talk and drink beer with people of other occupations. Every time someone at a bar tells me they work at a warehouse, they will soon be raving about how much better things are thanks to Amazon. You can overhear these conversations at bus stops, at the doctor, etc.

I'd like to visit that part of the world some day.
