Allmost all the workers at B&H live in Kiryas Joel, the poorest town in America.

@thorn....really ? Do your research ! Just google "amazon slave" ...then read some of the articles ! Of course...you can be a propagandist for the banksters if you want, but don't try peddling that crap to me !

Personally....I buy all my stuff from b&h. Usually cheaper and guaranteed service. Amazon is crap. I pity those poor people whose lives are so screwed that working there....or a thousand other sweat shops, is their only option. As well, I feel for poor lettuce pickers, usually illegal immigrants and victims to far greater abuse from a fascist government.

In Germany there is no minimum wage, so I guess whatever Amazon can push (or pull) for...

And coming to "willingness" to work under those conditions: Would anyone work there willingly? Any career chances?

I often feel like I work on a modern day plantation. Ultimately though those workers aren't forced to be there. Anyone know how much they make?

Not bad posts about Amazon

Ok, didn't know that but yeah, if they can do it in Germany, why wouldn't they do it anywhere else :)

Yes, Amazon Germany is under heavy observation due to dirty and cheap employee tactics. Lots of news coverage in Germany about that and Amazon having damage to it's reputation.

Yeah I thought the same as Lpowell lol!

I see big stacks of Dollars going to China right there, and big boxes of plastic going to Kiddies
by Christmas...
