Amazon Workers Sweat to Fill Prime Day Orders

It's Amazon Prime Day. Name the item, and it's probably on sale. The moment one hits the "Buy Now" button, Amazon workers will be fulfilling orders. Inside Edition visited a 150,000-square-foot Amazon facility outside Manhattan that specializes in same day delivery items. The site has 500 employees who will move an estimated 55,000 items this Prime shopping season. Jessica Teich from "Good Housekeeping" shared some of the items her publication tested and approved.

From the title, I thought this was going to be a report about Amazon workers being overworked to fulfill Prime Day orders.

[@Six_Four_InA_64]

Yo same 😂

[@815_silentgoonfilmz]

Same man

[@sitarashamsudeen209]

Same here

[@NelsonVanDweller]

I thought they were putting sweat inside the prime. Like a scandal

[@nodoubt015]

Just so you know, yes we were over worked this week lol

[@saint-g7449]

You barely said one sentence about the workers.

[@LoneStarRay]

I was thinking the same. This was basically just advertising by Amazon

[@deed2157]

Clickbait

Click bait! Some day someone has to file a class action lawsuit for misinformation and propaganda!

[@andg5194]

this was Prime Day advertisement

[@WabiSabiLady]

Why aren't they paid more, and why is their work environment not safer? Shame on the multi billionaire!!

[@ethan3949]

How do u expect huge pay for packing Amazon packages lady 😂😂 and they said nothing about working conditions and Amazon workers all love their jobs

[@felicia4017]

As someone who works in one of the warehouses, all of the AC units in our warehouse had been broken since 2022. We just got the greenlight to fix half of them 3 weeks before prime.

[@GoyslopGames]

You been smoking too much of that good good if you think Amazon employees all love their job. Been working there almost 6 years and it's not all bad but that's definitely not true lol

[@flyingjew2994]

Because it's a warehouse. Not much skill required outside of being forklift certified.

As a current Amazon employee, people need to understand what we go through to get your orders to your door. This was a huge slap in the face to me. Not a single word about our work conditions or a thank you. McDonald’s gets $20 while hard working Amazon employees get only $16 per hour.

[@tanner6859]

This sheets 48% off

[@Jenniferslife01]

Prime day is a huge scam. They up the prices and then discount them. They either end up the same price as before or more than it was before. Theres been a few videos online tlwking about.

Inside edition need a new editor man lmao whats up with the audio

[@DjSharperimage]

I used to work at Amazon. Prime Day isn't that bad. It's just 1 day of mandatory overtime.
Christmas is a lot worse with mandatory overtime for like 2 months, but they also hire like 100 new workers.

[@felicia4017]

It’s changed now. It’s now 11-hour shifts and 2 weeks of mandatory overtime.

Thank you Amazon workers for keeping prices cheap for us consumers.
