Amazon expects us to pick up 400 items per hour: Worker
An Amazon employee talking about working conditions at its New York-based warehouse said, "If an employee is a picker, [Amazon wants them] to pick up 400 items per hour." "I support the effort [to unionise]," the employee added. "They overwork you and you're like a number to them. During peak season...they give you 60 hours a week," another employee said.
