The problem is that in the prediction of such extreme weather, in the middle of a really strong storm, this people should be told to get the fuck off, go home and take care of their families for a few hours instead to become martyrs of packaging. Why they were risking their lives working at night in a notoriously unsafe type of building, with a warning of tornado hitting the area?
This was the wrong decision also for Amazon. Taking at least the bare minimum reasonable measures to protect their employees would have saved the company a lot of money and lawyers time. Nobody could have stopped the warehouse destruction in any case but the recovering would have been much more simple and much faster.
