Horrible! I worked in a factory for making truck springs.... it got so hot in there during summer, sometimes on my overnight shift, a couple people would faint and be taken away with ambulance. I never passed out even though I had by far the hottest machine in the place. 2 times the fire sprinkler system went off because of the heat. They expect you to work. There are "Heat Breaks" but not for people like me who's machine is basically a money printing machine. I heard the owner is in the top 200 richest Americans. That's how he treats his employees! I simply could not act that way. Guess that's why I'd never be so filthy rich. I have a heart.

i've been watching a lot of amazon videos like this. from what i can tell, the job is super oppressive and sterile. possibly stressful, especially if you've got a lot of annoying items to pack, yet still need to meet those goals. imagine having a day where you get nothing but annoying to pack items, and you're stressing out that you could lose your job, just from having an unlucky day. i work in warehousing as well. where i have to create entire pallets of stock. but they don't put these pack rate goals onto you. as they understand each order differs in size. and warehouse upkeep like replenishing stock, and dealing with system location and stock count errors is a thing to take into account. as long as you are seen to be working hard, and you're completing the orders within a reasonable time, you're fine. And they encourage communication and banter between employees to keep up morale. they like to keep everyone happy. especially the good workers. but Amazon seems kinda fucked. i'd probably only be able to last a short time working here. Also thanks for filming this. bet it took a lot of courage to try and not get caught with the camera.

It's oppressive hidden underneath smiles. Hard workers are made to work harder. Slow workers are put in places that they don't like so they quit. To survive, be mediocre. As I mention in the video, there was a day i had to pack umbrellas over and over again. I usually don't care about my rate because i work fast and the process assistants know that i work hard. They can't afford to lose me so when they ask me why my rate is low i just tell them "because I had to pack so and so" and they usually adjust my rate somehow. They were pretty shocked when i quit lol. I wish i worked at your warehouse! Good luck and stay safe out there!

This reminds me of working at a Lowes distribution back in my 20's. You had a daily, and hourly quota for items, and a quota for weight loaded for non conveyable. Which made it hell when the loaders in the trailers couldn't keep up with their chutes. September and March were always the worst. September all of the bays would get bombarded with all of the christmas stuff for the stores over the span of two weeks. And March was lawn mowers and tile flooring as far as the eye could see. We would lose good people every year during those periods because they "didn't meet their quota" for a few day's straight. I'll never work at a place like that again. Even if the pay is $15 to $20 an hour.

Hey, I noticed you dont put dunnage in alot of the 1a7 or other "taping" boxes. Do you think I can get away with that to save time and make rate?

@maakudesuyo

3 жыл бұрын

1a7 and 1a boxes, basically the small ones, you can usually skip putting dunnage because it will kick out and go to the slammer anyways, especially if the product is very light. On some cases though, when the product looks really fragile, or heavy, I'll put a lot of dunnage. But yeah most of the time for 1a, 1a7 i skip the dunnage. Also, if the item looks like it's a really good fit in the box, like it wouldn't move much, you don't need to put dunnage either. Hope this helps!

I packed at an FC in WA, 50 lbs or less, and we had a tape machine kinda like a small register, with buttons that dispense tape according to the box size punched in. Also all the items cane down in totes on conveyors for me. Heaviest packages I’ve packed were weights, an anvil, so much kitty litter, and Fiji water.

I work at a place where we get quite a few number of applicants/new hires coming from the Amazon fulfillment centre in Mississauga (due to some similarities in the roles), and during interviews or orientation we always hear them talk about how boring and monotonous and shitty it is to work at Amazon. Funny enough I applied at Amazon for a job prior to starting college but decided not to come in for the in person interview. After seeing this now I know they werent lying lmao

Is the productivity goal actually an hourly quota that you have to meet per hour or you will be punished or fired?

@maakudesuyo

3 жыл бұрын

you won't get fired exactly but it can get you closer to it. If you continuously perform below the quota, you can get write ups which can lead to termination. The other thing they might do is send you to a different department to see if you'll do better there.

This might be a specific and silly question, but we're you allowed to wear hi vis shirts or did you have to wear a vest? And do they require steel toe boots?

@maakudesuyo

2 жыл бұрын

Not sure if they would allow hi vis shirts but we were required to wear vests. There are normal thinner disposable vests that they provide too. Steel toe boots aren't required but they give a discount on Zappos composite toe boots.

do you get paid more per hour if your percentage is over what they require? for example I worked in the grocery warehouse business and for every percentage over 100 we were paid an extra .10 per hour we were pulling. So if I pulled a 150% average for the week I would make an extra $5 per hour times however many hours I was pulling groceries, in addition to my normal hourly rate.

yo thanks for the video! I'm graduation high school soon and can't wait to start earning some money. I've been eyeing amazon over walmart cuz it seems more secluded and pays more. Other than lifting over 45lbs and having bitchy managers, is the job really as simple as this? Show up to your corner and just pack things all day? You don't need to drive those machines or anything? Also do you regularly switch between packer and taper? or are you only stuck with one?

@maakudesuyo

2 жыл бұрын

The picker machines that you drive around is one specific position under the outbound department. As a packer, you won't get trained in the beginning to drive those machines until you get cross trained or if you request it. As a packer, you will also get trained to be a water spider and taper in the beginning. If you're good, they might keep you as a taper or waterspider multiple days of the week. Hopefully i answered your question! Thanks for watching!

Nice video ! was thinking about working here just because I am unemployed. Tried to be self employed the last 2 months but I have been distracted so haven't achieved much resorting to working a 40 hr job and work on a side hustle. just curious did you just film the pov of a package on your own or did you ask permission. Thanks for sharing your experience ?
