> You cannot possibly review this in one minute. I didn't mean to imply that you can. It's more that at Amazon's scale, they are surely constrained by how many new items are put up for sale every second. If even just 1/100 needs to be reviewed, then that's a considerable amount of work. Once the pipeline is setup their workforce probably got progressively better so they increase the review/day targets to match. That loop does not have a lot of feedback so they probably raised it too high at some point and this is the result. All of that to say, it's much more likely to be a process failure than anything else. They probably tried to optimize that process but cut too close to the bone and this is the result.
