Amazon turned boring warehouse work into a game

  That's not a "game", it's an employer-run productivity tracker with a shiny UI.

    Sure is. I don't think the people working there are fooled by that. It's in Amazon's best interest to be transparent about what they're trying to do with this.

    This. From the article: "The games simultaneously register the completion of the task, which is tracked by scanning devices, and can pit individuals, teams or entire floors against one another to be fastest"
