My Story

This is a long story, be patient, read it all and appreciate the fact that you don't work for Amazon and if you do, I pity you.
I have to start a bit ahead of my employment with Amazon, because what led up to being hired is just as important to the story as the story itself.

Amazon is known for its cutthroat efficiency and harsh tactics; it's what makes it possible to get a pack of toilet paper delivered to your door in less than 24 hours.

And ruthless optimization, unsurprisingly, doesn't make for a very supportive workplace environment. The New York Times' Jodi Kantor and David Streitfeld interviewed over 100 former and current Amazon employees for a fantastic new report out today that reveals just how bad it can get. Working at the retail giant's Seattle offices is apparently nothing like showing up to work at an idyllic Silicon Valley campus.

"NEARLY EVERY PERSON I WORKED WITH, I SAW CRY AT THEIR DESK."
