That's not better, it's just a different class of employee.

- smb06 10y agoExactly. Most of the people who say "Oh its not that bad at Amazon" are white collared workers who are living in their bubble and don't know the hardships of different class of employees.
- nostrebored 10y agoMost of the white collar people here have never been to a town that Amazon opened a warehouse in and actually talked to people there. I have, and reception is generally quite good. Anti-Amazonism is something I associate with upper middle class people.
- TeMPOraL 10y agoThe perils of non-white-collared workers are of little relevance when discussing whether or not a company is a good workplace for white-collar workers. When you go for an interview about a programming position, you probably don't ask your potential employer about working conditions of security contractors or people working at company's factory floor in another town.
- Buge 10y agoThen let's talk about the factory workers that manufacture Apple devices. Let's talk about the employees scanning books for Google http://www.e-flux.com/journal/the-artist-leaving-the-googleplex/ http://www.e-flux.com/journal/the-artist-leaving-the-googlep... . I don't think it's very relevant to what this thread was about, programmer working conditions.
