Why is Amazon so dominant in e-commerce if the working conditions are so bad?

I don't really have a good answer other than that in e-commerce software development is only a tiny part of the equation.
Everything in Amazon is a replaceable cog, especially the workers.
Bezos is pretty good at business strategy, and from the outside it looks like upper management is good at forcing a workable product to be delivered come hell or high water.
