This is technically true, but of course there are many other methods of increasing warehouse worker pay beyond reallocating the CEO's compensation package. The pie is not zero sum. For example, stock splits often result in market cap increases due to more liquidity / access. Amazon could issue some (or more?) stock options to its employees in the warehouse or elsewhere if they desired to do so, and it's not a foregone conclusion it would adversely affect their ability to retain a top tier CEO. Who knows, perhaps Amazon would see better worker retention resulting in increased efficiency if they had a more generous package for warehouse workers (not making this claim, but I disagree with the zero sum framing here).
