> Even before the pandemic, previously unreported data shows, Amazon lost about 3 percent of its hourly associates each week, meaning the turnover among its work force was roughly 150 percent a year. That rate, almost double that of the retail and logistics industries, has made some executives worry about running out of workers across America.
2. Even if we assume it's true, "better" does not mean acceptable. Imagine a town with no amazon that only has terrible jobs available. Amazon moves in, some people try working there, the job is so awful that they quit and go back to the other jobs. Those jobs are still terrible. There's very much an issue.
for 2. I am not sure why you would blame Amazon if it seems rather like a general specific employment problem in said area. Amazon is not responsible to fix everytjing around them are they?
It's not their obligation to fix everything around them. But if amazon's work environment is awful, people quitting it doesn't absolve them of anything. It's still an issue, whether people manage to escape to something better or not.
