  1. More fat stacks of hard cash for Bezos. I really despise the grip on e-commerce that Amazon has. Anyone who is happy with this new fulfillment centre needs their head examined.

  2. Doesn’t matter what they think, everyone here is allowed to form or join a union and it’s against the law to punish people for engaging in union activities.

  3. It’s amazing how much time, effort and money big companies put into telling everyone that union’s are no use. It’s almost like they’re actually no use for the company and loads of use for the employees.

  4. The need for a union in a particular workplace is directly proportionate to the efforts the employer goes to to prevent one from forming.

  5. I mean the best answer would be amazon being so good an employer that a union was unecessary but that’s never going to happen so..

  6. of course they fucking would loool Amazon has amongst the worst working conditions/ health violations/ poverty pay in teh western world and Unions are finally starting to push them back.

    “Amazon says please dont organise and let us continue treating you like shit” is the heading here

  7. Unions are the best option for any worker in any country working for Amazon. You don’t have to search much to see that Amazon is not an employee friendly employer.

  8. If a company is telling you not to unionise then that tells you all you need to know. If unions were so useless then why do corporations put so much money into fighting them? If you can join a union then you should do so.
