But doesn't this also mean you're more likely to loose your best employees (who can more easily find a job elsewhere) and retain your worst ones (who'll consider an unpleasant Amazon better than any alternative)?

Where are they going to go at this point? Not many places hiring that will pay more than Amazon.

One question I do have is since H1B is technically only allowed when there is not a citizen who can complete the job, does that mean that people on visas would be laid off first or does that not go into consideration for the layoffs.

There is no such requirement to employ an H1B. The only requirement is to pay atleast prevailing wage for the role you're hiring for.
Google, Apple, Microsoft?
