You mean Amazon is bad to their workers?

[-] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

He pointed to Amazon’s principle of “disagree and commit,” which is the idea that employees should debate and push back on each others ideas respectfully

That’s all fine and dandy for ending debate about a stupid roadmap feature, but “disagree and commit” is a different story when you’re asking people to spend 3 hours unpaid in a car everyday.

As a long time Amazon employee, disagree and commit essentially works like this:

Employee: "I'm not convinced this is the best way to do something"

Manager: "Noted, now stfu and do what I say"

Can the Amazon prime boss leave instead?

Do it during holiday season. Do it.

Go into the office and waste every resource you can.

Plug in a fan + heater + aquarium + massage pad at your desk and leave everything on constantly even when you leave

Print every email and throw it in the trash.

Make coffee 50x a day and pour it down the sink

Flush a whole roll of TP every hour

Leave sinks on in the bathroom

Use entire tubs of soap to wash your hands

Turn on the microwave for hours at a time

Heat/cool office thermometer to force HVAC into overdrive

Open new browser windows until your computer crashes and repeat until the network goes down

Company wide meme emails that everyone participates in (team building) that crash servers and dominate inboxes

Pour sugar/crumbs everywhere so there's pest problems

Accept every phishing email

Put USB sticks found on the ground into your work computer

Open the door for strangers who want to get in the building without a badge

FORM A UNION

(nuclear option) introduce bedbugs to all your bosses offices

Why don't they just keep working from home and get fired? Instead of having to quit themselves?

[-] AnxiousOtter@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Getting fired with cause doesn't come with severance and looks bad on a resume.

[-] Shanedino@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

You don't put that you were fired on your resume though...
