Whether or not they are pervasive, they should not have occurred in the first place. What kind of culture allowed this to happen even once? Why hasn't there been a statement or commitment from Amazon on fixing this, rather than doubling down on "it doesn't happen" ?
This specific Amazon incident is just one of may incidents across many major employers where workers end up suffering. Regulations should exist that prevent this from even happening, but political will doesn't seem to exist, sadly.
Blowing up this incident helps refocus the attention on trying to fix this nationwide, rather than this specific incident at amazon.

Regulations should exist that prevent this from even happening, but political will doesn't seem to exist, sadly. Okay if the goal is bringing attention to general workplace issues across major companies, then why is it only ever Amazon taking flak? What is special about them that they're the whipping post? Walmart is egregious, systematically so, shown time and time again over decades, but Amazon is the beacon of workforce mal-treatment? Please.
