$15/hour is the minimum at Amazon not the median - from the news articles I've read, they also do this for temporary/seasonal/part time workers, not just for full time workers. You’re drawing a false comparison.
Also is there any evidence that conditions are “really horrible”? Lots of people love working at Amazon warehouses - it pays well for unskilled labor and includes benefits. How do you know the complaints aren’t just from a small number of workers who are bad at their job and feel the time crunch, while most might be getting along fine? I feel like there isn’t available data to say either way - all we have are anecdotes that are being amplified in social media.
