Best thing
Some of the people I've met are amazing
Worst thing
Mandatory overtime, managers don't put policy in place for safety unless it's to reprimand you for minor things, takes to long to get things fixed and when they do give a bonus out they add it in with your wage so.you lose most of it to tax

The pay is decent
Worst thing
The time we start and finish is late. The amount of drops/deliveries is a lot. Always feel rushed some drivers don’t take breaks in able to do all deliveries.

Best thing
Most of the people working at Amazon are great. They make it bearable, as the company itself does not care about the workers.
Worst thing
The recruitment agency of Amazon, they're just not nice people. They do a mass hire then a mass firing people only to do a mass hire because of lack of workers actually needed, and just a repeated process of this making it so difficult for everyone else as struggle to keep up with the volume of packages. Amazon does not care about your welfare, they only care about metrics; making more money. You could go to work only to be told they have 'enough' people and they want some people to go home so they look good to higher ups. It's all about metrics about Amazon , they do not care about you at all.

If u take more than 3 sick days off during 6 months they issue a warning letter. If u are going to be sick even one more time after a warning letter u are moved onto a second warning letter (even if u have a sick note from your GP. The 6 month period restarts and if u are sick once again, you are fired. No compassion at Amazon. You are just a number
