Seriously, Amazon? 100K through just attrition? Fake article?
Financial Post
100000 out of 1.54million
Which is still decent amount. Surprised that could be simply done by attrition
Overhired warehouse workers during pandemic because many didn't come in. Now they are overstaffed.
Sounds like you have an agenda and are jelly
No I am curious of how 100k could be done by attrition without layoff? That would save a lot of money for sure
Amazon >> walmart
^^ this Yea, Amazon is bad, that doesn't mean Walmart guys will shit on it 🤣
Walmart copies Amazon. Be careful
Amazon copies Walmart too? Otherwise why wholefood and other physical stores?
Agreed. But the complaint was about Amazon
You have an axe to grind. Listen to other answers here about warehouse worker cycles. Amazon is hiring tech workers as they were last year.
Listening. I simply put what written in the article about attrition
“After relying on attrition to winnow its staff, Amazon now has about 100,000 fewer employees than in the previous quarter.” “Amazon has been subleasing some warehouse space and paused development of facilities meant for office workers, saying it needed more time to figure out how much space employees will require for hybrid work. The company now has 1.52 million full- and part-time workers and is still the largest employer in the tech world, despite the reduction in headcount.”
Surprised to see OP who seems to be in e-commerce finding this fake. What do you think happens in your retail stores and warehouses between Oct to Jan? One hires temp workers for the peak season.
“Chief financial officer Brian Olsavsky said at the time. Amazon has been subleasing some warehouse space and paused development of facilities meant for office workers, saying it needed more time to figure out how much space employees will require for hybrid work.”
Seems it is for office workers as well. But anyway this is a good channel to share any idea and info
Mostly warehouse workers after peak. This isn’t new.
