Yes Amazon, like most multi-billion dollar corporations, hates you. They hate their customers, they hate their workers, they hate government standing in their way, they hate the planet.

You may think the poster above is being hyperbolic. As someone who used to work there they are not. They hate you and everything they say and do reflects this.
Yep. I’m not saying there no good employees, but upper management and the overall direction of Amazon corporation is uncaring at best, openly hostile at worst.

they just spent 200bn on AI, so from the grapevine, of amazon employyes/WF, they are looking to downsizing more somewhere.

It’s so obvious that the point is the cruelty and control and demoralization, because it is ABSOLUTELY not the most efficient way to work.
Amazon leaves money on the table because it wants to be cruel. Every business does, essentially.

I firmly believe that after a certain amount of money there is no longer “joy” in having money and they all have to find something else to get their fix so to speak.
It just so happens that hurting people (or more accurately, having the power to make people hurt themselves and put themselves through humiliation to please you) is the only thing that they enjoy after they’ve won the money part of life.
Even small businesses do this, owner gets the car they’ve always wanted and then just decides to make everyone that works for them as miserable as possible, even if it costs them more money to do that, because the high from that is WAY better than the money they could otherwise make.

When you recognize how common it is that sociopaths work their way into power, precisely because they get pleasure from controlling and being cruel to others, a lot of how the world is starts to make sense.

to be a billionaire you have to be a little psychopathic, always involve screwing people over, other business partners, sewing them to get thier IP as your own. or if someone like soros taking advantage of situations.
