Amazon does a lot right, but their ego is one thing that trips them up often - Warehouse Associate Amazon Employee Review

Unrealistic productivity rates. Walk up to 15 miles a day. Repetitive tasks. Management plays favorites. Management promises opportunity for growth, never happens. Favoritism is rampant. zero respect for the associates on the floor from managers. Treated like children. The culture is all about one-upping the next person, from senior management down to the warehouse associates, it's very demoralizing. It's who you get along with not your talents/productivity that dictates where you go in the company. They work you very, very hard....which is not a problem with me, very physically intensive.
