I've worked as an order picker at an AR fulfillment center and I am currently working at a different FC driving an order picker to pick larger, heavier items. Honestly, the work in the AR facility where I was stationary picking items off the pods that the robots bring to me was more exhausting. The rate at the AR facility was much higher, picking one order roughly every 7 seconds, and due to the height of the pod, you may need to kneel down to the bottom or climb a step ladder to the top... Every 7 seconds. Doing that for 40 hours a week was very tiresome. I personally wouldn't recommend working as an order picker in an AR facility.
hello fellow Amazonian drone 🤣🤣 i've worked on opposite sides of you in Pick... just after Peak, i crosstrained in Decant in IB dock. my main position now is VRETs after trying most of OB dock. we send the product back on wood pallets including even Yorkshire/PG Tips tea and ramen. but mainly we destroy/liquidate/donate/"recycle" all the trash that sketchy distributors don't even find it worth paying for return (how bad is your product if even tea and ramen companies pay for their product's return??)
thats terrifying and thats coming from an employee thats top at their building. my building is super lenient, bottom 3% raters and dont care about errors anywhere close to that extreme.
@@thewillow3457 Why is that terrifying, the value of error on Amazon is much more than at your place, if you accidentally send a package to the wrong place that would have significant outcome. So that's why they are always focused on that
@Nathan Byrne amazon warehouses are the worst to work in Canada. You are underpaid, disrespected and treated like machines. Jeff Bezos have made his money by exploiting workers.
@@yashvirraj9183 then don’t work for them if you don’t like it. And I’m sure you’re going to say “well there’s no other jobs here in canda.” Then consider yourself LUCKY
The next automation they should come with is an adult diaper dispenser for warehouse employees. This will cut down on the amount of time it takes to pee into a bottle.
Its drivers that don't get bathroom breaks. I can leave my position at any time in the warehouse to get water or use the bathroom. And they've really reduced the time off task obsession, so it's a lot more chill than it used to be.
I worked at an Amazon Distribution Warehouse for a month. It was brand new. You had to have a package stowed in at least 8 seconds and have a package scanned in less than 2 seconds. Mind the fact that you were dealing with 2 to 3 rows at a time. Not to be critical, but that type of time management is unrealistic. Getting paid $15 an hour to be ran ragged is not smart. I was able to find a better job in less than 24 hours getting paid $18 an hour plus benefits packaging electrical parts. Just working the second week at my new job I made right over $1,017 after taxes.😁
Jeff should let the shipping companies deal with that but he wants the fast food equivalent of shopping. The price will be paid for all of that convenience.
The one I work at asks us to stow at 200-300 items between breaks. Which is easy even if we don't make it we are never told to hurry up and force us to hurry. The only time ppl get in trouble is for legit not doing work and are just slacking
I work at a Huge fedex hub in the UK, most of the process is simple & easy, but there is a part of the warehouse where employees have to constantly place light to heavy boxes on a belt which can be very draining.
former fedex employee, current amazon employee; amazon is infinitely better than my job at fedex. amazon day shift pays me better than fedex night shift did lol
@@aiah5758 how's about now after the 10 hour mega cycle was merged with Pick and stage? cuz carts filled with up to 450 lbs of boxes or bags and whatnot is not fun walking around the building at least 5-6 times within 3 hours after prior workloads. =/
I work in an Amazon warehouse and started during the height of covid. The safety issues that we bring up to managers are rarely enforced, the truck the guy is shown loading will fall on someone. I've been hit several times because there isn't really much accountability between warehouses. It gets worse because they poorly train workers and hire people who don't care. While I don't work in an AI warehouse, I do know that several packages are mislabeled and cause more waste and time for real people to fix the slam machines' issues. Some times sharp objects are poking through thin envelopes and heavy objects (think dog food....) are not packed in reinforced boxes and consistently break open. Sorry hungry doggos. Good AI is still a LONG way into the future.
the one I worked in for 2 weeks was quite safe, but the machinery kept either breaking down or stopping because of employee issues. We had to keep up with a certain rate - and were shown our rates daily without our asking - yet, the company itself couldn't keep up. If no boxes are coming or going or if the bin carousel has stopped, our this or that little machine has broken, why should my rate be affected? Humans, especially management, is the weakest link at Amazon. And, not just in our warehouse location, but in other processes, I saw a lot of mistakes and inefficiencies. Amazon needs to focus more on efficiency and employee retention and less on their LGBT agenda. Gay people don't want to have a crappy job, either.
This is insane. How well a warehouse is configured will have a bearing on how successful a business will be in the speed and accuracy with which it can achieve order fulfilment for its customers. This is clearly the case here.
A good warehouse should always have less than 1% error rate. Anything above that means that there's something wrong with your SOP, or with worker morale.
I used to work in a warehouse like this for Amazon. It was known as TEB9 in New Jersey. They named it that because TEB is the airport code for the closest airport, Teterboro. I forget what the 9 meant. But it honestly wasn't a bad job to have. I mean they kinda treat their employees like crazy but over there. It wasn't what I was hearing about too much. I can definitely see what it's all about.
@Aluminum Oxide I guess it just depends what warehouse you work at. I have heard different rate requirements for different warehouses. I work at an Amazon warehouse in CA and the picker rate is in the 400s per hour. It can be done. There are a lot of slackers and there are a lot of hard working ppl. I know some ppl pick 420 an hr no problem. That's too much for me. I usually pick around 360 and it's only "low" because there are always issues with those robots.
Best line! People cry about how amazon treats their workers, or how they get their products and how they should go away; but then they turn around and buy something from amazon :D
This is insane, say what you want about how they treat their workers, but the logistical and technological genius here is mind blowing. It’s wild to think that almost anyone in the US could order an item and within hours get it at their door step hand delivered, I remember having to wait until the next day just to drive 45 mins to the nearest Best Buy to get some DVD player or whatever...
The fact that you chose to interview an overpaid under worked Democrat regarding how employees feel at Amazon is comical. Your entire video lost credibility with that one move. If you think I'm wrong, look through the comments. You got Democrats complaining, not us citizens. You chose to interview a Democrat regarding working at the location, not a US citizen
Мне людей жалко , которые работают на этой адской работе ... У нас в России много маркетплейсов, и отношение к человеку там как к рабу, думаю на Амазоне так же, штрафы за все что можно и нельзя ...
To all the negative comments, the work at Amazon is easier than at other warehouse jobs (from experience), place is clean (minus the adults acting like mommy and daddy works there), environment is climate controlled, offers large breakrooms, cleaned bathrooms and a variety of work hours accommodating personal schedules. Company also offers a variety of employee programs to help you grow. Pay is not bad.... Yes, the work can get difficult, especially if you work too many hours and they do cap the work hours even if overtime is available.
it’s nice warehouse as far as technology cleanliness and safety Amazon is definitely the best warehouse And for them working people hard there’s a lot of help available they provide and for hours they give you the options to take times off and you don’t have to work so many hours The online reviews are scaring people from working there
Biggest thing is the reduction in physical demand and also the opportunity to take free skill development courses and great options to move into software
| they do cap the work hours even if overtime is available. They told me that they don't. I believe you and not them. Walmart also lied to me about pay before I applied there.
Imagine working long, exhaustive hours in one of these depressing warehouses fulfilling unrealistic quotas only to be rewarded with an Amazon shirt that says "thanks for working hard, now get back to work".
you make it sound like they have made you slave over there lmfao, b!tch you are getting money! they are saving u from living in unemployement and poverty, the fact that you are getting a job at amazon probably means you are a highly unskilled labour which has very low demands, you will eventually be replaced by robots anyways, but no people still complaint
it is depressing in there. very very noisy, very dusty, your stations change too often so that you cannot keep them organized or stocked. some managers don't like coming to your station to fix the machines - maybe their feet hurt or they have too much other work to do. processes that Amazon wants done are often not done by managers/supervisors, so employees must work harder.
When I worked at Amazon as a driver, I wasn't allowed to leave after I filled my car. I had to wait for everyone else to finish. It didn't make sense because some routes were 45minutes away with only a couple delivers. Other people had 50 delivers but it would be around the corner. Why would anyone* keep working there?
I work as a driver and that is true but driving is way better than being at the warehouse. Maybe because I’m challenging myself and I work on my own. I am the fastest delivery driver in my department. I guess I’m built different
@@ivanugalde5516 may I ask how good is the pay rate for drivers? I make 20 an hour as a security guard for amazon warehouse and they tell me 20 to start as a driver but I find that too low.
Amazon's smart warehousing is awesome! I found that as long as there are many types of products and many SKUs, smart warehousing will be used to deal with the problem. Our factory also has such smart warehousing. It is as high as several floors and can accommodate hundreds of thousands or even millions of product packages. Of course, the effect is very high when there are a lot of orders, which saves delivery time. As an employee of picking goods and quality inspection, they need to be in good physical condition and move quickly, and the working hours are also very long, sometimes there is no time to drink water and go to the toilet. This work is fast-paced and intense. When we receive the goods, we should be grateful in our hearts, because it comes from the hard work and sweat of many people!🙏😇
The key thing missing with current robots is hands and accurate vision placement. So robots can’t yet pick and pack mail boxes. Tesla’s factories have the same issue - where robots couldn’t install wires in cars. Once this is solved, there will be little need for warehouse workers.
The new Pegasus robots get packages delivered to the edge out of a mass flow loop, waterfalls down to a few items between a scan zone, then picked up by a robotic arm and placed on the Pegasus. Just did one of the first sites to use this and the robot arm was the least of our problems. Just uses suction cups to pick up the package. Next step would be boxing and sealing those boxes with robots.
@@ddf_m340i4 So what would it take for a Robot to pick the goods and fill the boxes? A hand, vision, and bar scanner? I have seen machines which close and seal boxes.
I run a packing machine for the world's largest online distributor of restaurant supplies. It's pretty neat when it works correctly and isn't breaking down every 5 mins😅 I just place the items on a conveyor belt and hit a button. The machine builds the box around the items, tapes it shut, and puts the shipping label on.
@@SiisKolkytEuroo At least at my fulfilment centre in Scotland, there’s little automation, mostly manual labour for 10.5 hours straight, there’s not enough car parking on site so they make you go 20 mins away to park when you’re already driving 40mins to get to work, they try to enforce covid safe measure but it’s impossible to uphold when you’re in there, you can go weeks at a time with no communication from your manager about how well/bad you’re doing and there’s no consequences if you are doing well or doing badly, apart from if your doing bad or going slow you get verbal warnings, but the don’t feel too threatening
@@onto_something yeah this is true, so the guys in the pick tower where the items are stored are walking roughly 15miles a day to get items as the warehouse isn’t automated, also I was doing a job in customer returns the other day and clocked an average of 22km of walking per day for a week
I actually liked my time at Amazon. If you think Amazon is bad , pick up a few shifts at a UPS warehouse and let me know how that goes. I can tell you from my experience UPS was absolute HELL more like a slave house. Amazon warehouse I worked out is fairly automated so I got to do the boring stuff. and thats the one bad thing id complain about is that working at Amazon can get REALLY boring
all at the expense of the seller.....anytime anything goes wrong the money used to pay to fix the error always falls back on the seller. Amazon sucks money from everyone is every direction to provide that "customer service"..if a product is lost no matter how it falls back on the seller to provide another one at their own expense......if an item in an order is incomplete or broken regardless how the seller is charged a fee and expected to replace it at no cost.....anytime you see "you might also like" the seller is charged an advertising fee......so if you want to sell successfully on Amazon you need a lot of capitol and a huge return on investment.....thats why big name brands dominate every page, because they can afford to pay the fees that Amazon charges for their products to be shown first or show in other searches.....if you don't pay the fee there is very little chance someone will see your product('s) not to mention all the charges they have in place just for anyone to sell on their site.
people love going on Vacation, seeing the beach and stuff... me, i just want to go to a amazon warehouse, everything id ever want is under one roof, imagine that
Those pick rates are probably for Universal Stations. ARSAW’s are 340 - 400 units per hour. Last night, someone on my shift was hitting 512 uph. The errors are referring to what are called “False Pick Shorts” and are the quickest way for an employee to get in trouble, you’re basically cancelling out/delaying a customer order by hitting “Missing Item” on the pick screen. If the item is discovered by a “Counter” to be in the bin and the picker didn’t pick it but instead opted to cancel out the order, that’s a big no no. Always check and confirm through scanning all items in a bin to confirm an item as missing before labeling it as such.
I work for the same technology from home ....I have to make sure the people keeping the products in that yellow box is kept safely and count the number of products went missing...we work at extremely fast pace and every time the employee at amazon does a mistake ..I have to correct it else I'm done for...
If you’re gonna work at Amazon look for an FC warehouse and apply as a stower all you do is drive for 10 hours going up and down on the racks putting boxes in random locations you just gotta look for it. I honestly get less tired since I’m hardly walking all day I recommend it over the other positions
I've been an Amazon customer for at least 15 years. I have thought the world of Amazon, but since Jeff Bezos left the company I have noticed a small number of my orders have been incomplete and I have still been charged. However I have called the store and they have credited me. What surprised me today was I went to order an item, above the item was the word NEW. Under the item in small print was "used - good condition". I know what the price should be new, it is expensive. When it is used it is cheap. In this instance the item price was identical. I am dismayed to see the company changing, a company that had ethics high ethics, in my opinion untouched by any other company. The only thing I can say that's good is I've ordered way more than I need to on Amazon and this will probably save me a fortune. I cannot see myself ordering from a company that is trying to mislead me, especially a company that once had a glowing reputation.
Amazon the global giant of E-commerce site having a warehouse probably with every item, the logistical and technological genius here is mind blowing.This is clearly the case here.
Isn’t Amazon viciously anti-union? I bet they’d resort to all kinds of dirty tactics to break your union, and I’m sure they already pay high-priced Union-busting consultants.
If you need it, start it, it only takes 2 to be a union. @owen, who cares how amazon is on the stance. If enough people leave the job, and not enough people come to replace them, the union stands, that is what a union is for.
@@MoonLiteNite Pretty soon you won't have anyone join a union because everything would be further automated! Better yet upgrade your skills early before things get fully automated!
2nd week at a brand new FC Warehouse, clocked in 8-10 miles every 10 hour shift. Got some good shoes, insoles, compression socks, I don't feel shit! 😁 time goes by fast too.
@@delicious9930 just because someone else does it, doesnt mean amazon should too, amazon isnt an NGO, its a buisness, if they start paying super high wages for a job that just involves moving boxes, the employees would become lazy, skill supply and demand is what determines the pay, and thats how it should be
I have been at an Amazon FC for almost a year as a stower and I love it. All these negative comments go find another job and quit whining. I guess it's the generation now. I am 49 and have worked hard all my life. My UPH is normally around 300 and I am never below the top 3 on my floor. You work hard and do a good job and you are rewarded.
From 4 days time to deliver past year to within 18 hour of ordering...insane without even paying any delivery charge... just wow.. That too in India with a very high market.
I used to be amazed when amazon packages took 2-3 days to arrive. These days it's like 3-5 days unless it comes from the warehouse in my state. But my local warehouse doesn't seem to have much because I rarely get items from it.
dont ever work for amazon in any capacity unless its a 3rd party delivery company. all they care about is packages being delivered, i broke my toe on my route once and was told to keep going if i wanted to keep my job.
I just made a purchase on Amazon that is sold by a user and Fufilled by Amazon. So I can clearly imagine what my order is going through at the Amazon Facility! :-)
It’s like any other business that thrives during the good times. But it becomes obsolete. Remember Woolworth, Montgomery Ward, Blockbuster, and Circuit City? Someone always makes something better, faster, and more efficient.
In the 70s and 80s it took six weeks to receive a package from UPS or FED EX, and you had to call on the phone to place your order. There was no internet and anything you ordered would be from an infomercial or catalog. Crazy how things have evolved.
The amazon I work at don't give a shit if you go restroom. Yall managers are just as assholes. They will only say something if you really ain't stowing kinda consistent.
Um no, at least not the one i work at, i love my job, i try to make the best of it, managers are chill, play nice music, people are just lazy and complain about putting items in a box and taping it
Never work at Amazon. I worked there for 2 weeks. Got 2 slipped disks and now in physical therapy and may need surgery. After visiting doctors they said that they have many cases of people working for amazon.
my poor feet :< i think my shift record was 32K steps. i heard another coworker say he's done 40K. and that's not to mention sore backs and/or hand muscles if you get slammed with work at some point in your shift in certain areas of the FC (warehouse)
Workers: We're putting our lives on the line because the warehouse is too hot, we need A/C. Amazon: Eh, we're not experts on employee welfare, so let me call a friend to see what they say. Best I can do is ambulances.
the robots are only in fulfillment centers. every sortation center still does that many miles per day, often making sorters stow 300 packages an hour per person. this translates to about 5-6 packages a minute. 1 package per 10 seconds in otherwords. this includes boxes up to 45 lbs, and many times there are aisles that get hit with up to several hundred packages per night of up to 45-50 lbs over the night. there was a night where 120 25 lbs computers came to one aisle. 1 picker had to pick them up by themselves, and 1 stower did the same. typically these come in on pallets and are received by these individuals over the course of 2 hours. that'd be something around 3000 lbs lifted within 2 hours. a typical sortation picker lifts up to 2500-3600 packages per night, while a typical sorter can see around 2200-2500 packages per night sorted depending on what comes to their aisles. it's very random and you never know what will come your way. personally, i find this job enjoyable, love the people for the most part. but yes, the demands of the job are NOT For every person. DO NOT work in the sortation department if you are a person with severe health issues, are extremely overweight, are prone to injury, or have come from a job that has zero physical activity. if you do, you will have a higher risk of injury, complications with your health, or even long-term injury. in many cases, the injuries sustained within the job ARE NOT due to the demands of the station, but rather the state of physical health of the employee. that said, injuries DO occur. it is a significantly fast paced environment that very few can succeed in past the minimum requirement set by the expected pick and stow rates. IF you do plan to become an employee, my recommendation is to first get your health in order, look up proper lifting practices (many injuries occur due to failing to lift properly) and to specifically spend your first month walking everywhere you can, as quickly as you can. most warehouses are around 1/8 mile or more. you will be walking A LOT. secondly, get to know your co-workers. WE HELP EACHOTHER. this is a team based environment, if one person is hurt or getting bogged down, HELP OUT. otherwise, no one will go out of their way to help you out when you are next in line getting bombarded by dozens of packages for your aisle set, or are too fatigued to continue in your area. if there is one person you dislike a lot within the warehouse, or you are the type to be non-personable.. at least do your best to help those around you. you don't need to talk, just assist where you can. it's always appreciated, because the person in front of you, yourself, or the person behind you might have spend the last 3 days rushing to hit their stow rate requirements, or are new and aren't up to the demands quite yet.
I wanted to buy a book. It was $35 at Amazon, free shipping, delivered the next day. I looked up on other book stores, it was about $65, plus $25 in shipping, 2 weeks to be delivered. I'm not rich and I hate Amazon, but how do you compete with that price and delivery?
No, Telekom did this bullshit in Hungary, they gave a $30 voucher for Christmas last year, that you could use to buy company merch. Of course a raise is too much to ask because oh no, it's corona now....
I've been trying for years to convince Amazon that the practice of shipping each item immediately (and most often, individually) as it's ordered is folly. ASK THE CUSTOMER how long they would be willing to wait! Instead of getting me that shaving cream tomorrow, let me opt to have it sent with the four other things I'm apt to order over the next two weeks. Heck, give me $1 credit for the "inconvenience" of going an extra day or week without shaving cream. Less boxes, less delivery madness, less package pilfering, less costly claims, etc.
My first order from Amazon Sweden about a week ago: One thing of the order arrived within a week. Another thing arrived within a day or two, but... they shipped the wrong thing (got a UK plug instead of a EU plug!). So now i have to wait until 29 December, about three weeks after order, for the (hopefully) correct one. And i am not alone. Ridiculous translations on their home page, often very expensive products (cheaper to buy on other places) and often deliver the wrong thing.
Only 26 seconds to see first clip inside warehouse and what do you know, a perfect example of terrible manual handling with a full bend over and dead straight legs. You would've thought they'd pick this up before releasing any footage
I buy most everything on internet. Used to buy 100% from Amazon. I agree with Amazon convinience and speed. They are not watching price. Some repeat items I buy were 50% more than other suppliers. I hate the inconvienience of having to shop around for those mistakes. I hope someone at Amazon reads this.
I’ve actually worked at amazon for 4 months because I needed to make money and let me tell you something They treat us also like machines We only got 5 minutes break and since I was 21 at that time they made stay till 9pm in the night to finish the final packages and when I wanted to go home they said I have to be at work at 5am Everyday it really messed up my relationship with my gf and my mental health So I quitted and now went and work for Elon musk behind Tesla bureau Fucking amazing

I forget what the 9 meant. But it honestly wasn't a bad job to have. I mean they kinda treat their employees like crazy but over there. It wasn't what I was hearing about too much. I can definitely see what it's all about.
8:08 put another way, the workers have to process and package one package every 30 seconds (no later), to as fast as one per 12 seconds.
They dont look like their going fast enough
@Aluminum Oxide I guess it just depends what warehouse you work at. I have heard different rate requirements for different warehouses. I work at an Amazon warehouse in CA and the picker rate is in the 400s per hour. It can be done. There are a lot of slackers and there are a lot of hard working ppl. I know some ppl pick 420 an hr no problem. That's too much for me. I usually pick around 360 and it's only "low" because there are always issues with those robots.
The last line ”as long as we are all buying, Amazon will keep on delivering ” 👌💯
Best line!
People cry about how amazon treats their workers, or how they get their products and how they should go away; but then they turn around and buy something from amazon :D
I haven't bought anything from Amazon in many years. I don't intend to buy anything from Amazon again. Boycott Amazon.
@@vshah1010 Yeah man I dont buy from amazon either, we live in a time where you must choose practice over product!
@@vshah1010 You're silly
@@vshah1010 why are u boycotting such a great service which just connects a seller to a buyer?
This is insane, say what you want about how they treat their workers, but the logistical and technological genius here is mind blowing. It’s wild to think that almost anyone in the US could order an item and within hours get it at their door step hand delivered, I remember having to wait until the next day just to drive 45 mins to the nearest Best Buy to get some DVD player or whatever...
There's a big price to be paid for all of that fast food style shopping
I dunno in my opinion genius logistics and technology isn't much if the workers are treated like garbage
No one care about minimum wage idiots .Amazon sdes and management are paid the best and everyone wished to work in one of the maang companies
The fact that you chose to interview an overpaid under worked Democrat regarding how employees feel at Amazon is comical. Your entire video lost credibility with that one move. If you think I'm wrong, look through the comments. You got Democrats complaining, not us citizens. You chose to interview a Democrat regarding working at the location, not a US citizen
Мне людей жалко , которые работают на этой адской работе ... У нас в России много маркетплейсов, и отношение к человеку там как к рабу, думаю на Амазоне так же, штрафы за все что можно и нельзя ...
9:30 Amazon: Okay we are now going to invest in robotic ambulances
lol
To all the negative comments, the work at Amazon is easier than at other warehouse jobs (from experience), place is clean (minus the adults acting like mommy and daddy works there), environment is climate controlled, offers large breakrooms, cleaned bathrooms and a variety of work hours accommodating personal schedules. Company also offers a variety of employee programs to help you grow. Pay is not bad.... Yes, the work can get difficult, especially if you work too many hours and they do cap the work hours even if overtime is available.
it’s nice warehouse as far as technology cleanliness and safety Amazon is definitely the best warehouse And for them working people hard there’s a lot of help available they provide and for hours they give you the options to take times off and you don’t have to work so many hours The online reviews are scaring people from working there
Okay Jeff calm down
Biggest thing is the reduction in physical demand and also the opportunity to take free skill development courses and great options to move into software
And during busier times they offer additional "surge rate" premiums for picking up voluntary extra shifts. up to +5.00/hr on top of time and a half!
| they do cap the work hours even if overtime is available.
They told me that they don't. I believe you and not them.
Walmart also lied to me about pay before I applied there.
Imagine working long, exhaustive hours in one of these depressing warehouses fulfilling unrealistic quotas only to be rewarded with an Amazon shirt that says "thanks for working hard, now get back to work".
You also get paid.
Go get another job if not get me my packages.
you make it sound like they have made you slave over there lmfao, b!tch you are getting money! they are saving u from living in unemployement and poverty, the fact that you are getting a job at amazon probably means you are a highly unskilled labour which has very low demands, you will eventually be replaced by robots anyways, but no people still complaint
it is depressing in there. very very noisy, very dusty, your stations change too often so that you cannot keep them organized or stocked. some managers don't like coming to your station to fix the machines - maybe their feet hurt or they have too much other work to do. processes that Amazon wants done are often not done by managers/supervisors, so employees must work harder.
When I worked at Amazon as a driver, I wasn't allowed to leave after I filled my car. I had to wait for everyone else to finish. It didn't make sense because some routes were 45minutes away with only a couple delivers. Other people had 50 delivers but it would be around the corner. Why would anyone* keep working there?
I work as a driver and that is true but driving is way better than being at the warehouse. Maybe because I’m challenging myself and I work on my own. I am the fastest delivery driver in my department. I guess I’m built different
@@ivanugalde5516 may I ask how good is the pay rate for drivers? I make 20 an hour as a security guard for amazon warehouse and they tell me 20 to start as a driver but I find that too low.
I’m working at amazon and sometimes happens to me no one will believe there’s lot of bad manger and they don’t respect us and they shouted out of us
Then quit! Stop 🛑 choosing to be a slave!

You missed the part where the boxes are half opened or on the ground or jamming conveyor belts.
Amazon's smart warehousing is awesome! I found that as long as there are many types of products and many SKUs, smart warehousing will be used to deal with the problem. Our factory also has such smart warehousing. It is as high as several floors and can accommodate hundreds of thousands or even millions of product packages. Of course, the effect is very high when there are a lot of orders, which saves delivery time.
As an employee of picking goods and quality inspection, they need to be in good physical condition and move quickly, and the working hours are also very long, sometimes there is no time to drink water and go to the toilet. This work is fast-paced and intense. When we receive the goods, we should be grateful in our hearts, because it comes from the hard work and sweat of many people!🙏😇
Amazon is such an online platform where all the needs of the people are met very quickly. There is no comparison between them in customer service.
The key thing missing with current robots is hands and accurate vision placement. So robots can’t yet pick and pack mail boxes. Tesla’s factories have the same issue - where robots couldn’t install wires in cars. Once this is solved, there will be little need for warehouse workers.
Yes, the human hands is a very complex mechanism. Very difficult to replicate accurately.
The new Pegasus robots get packages delivered to the edge out of a mass flow loop, waterfalls down to a few items between a scan zone, then picked up by a robotic arm and placed on the Pegasus. Just did one of the first sites to use this and the robot arm was the least of our problems. Just uses suction cups to pick up the package. Next step would be boxing and sealing those boxes with robots.
@@ddf_m340i4 So what would it take for a Robot to pick the goods and fill the boxes? A hand, vision, and bar scanner?
I have seen machines which close and seal boxes.
I run a packing machine for the world's largest online distributor of restaurant supplies. It's pretty neat when it works correctly and isn't breaking down every 5 mins😅 I just place the items on a conveyor belt and hit a button. The machine builds the box around the items, tapes it shut, and puts the shipping label on.
Do a video on how all those items gets to these fulfillment centers.
China
Lol real shit
This is an awful representation of what it’s actually like in an amazon warehouse - a disgruntled current employee
What is it like?
@@SiisKolkytEuroo At least at my fulfilment centre in Scotland, there’s little automation, mostly manual labour for 10.5 hours straight, there’s not enough car parking on site so they make you go 20 mins away to park when you’re already driving 40mins to get to work, they try to enforce covid safe measure but it’s impossible to uphold when you’re in there, you can go weeks at a time with no communication from your manager about how well/bad you’re doing and there’s no consequences if you are doing well or doing badly, apart from if your doing bad or going slow you get verbal warnings, but the don’t feel too threatening
@@onto_something yeah this is true, so the guys in the pick tower where the items are stored are walking roughly 15miles a day to get items as the warehouse isn’t automated, also I was doing a job in customer returns the other day and clocked an average of 22km of walking per day for a week
@@zinoheadshot12 this is cool. I go walk miles for health reasons. jealous you are getting pid for it.
I actually liked my time at Amazon. If you think Amazon is bad , pick up a few shifts at a UPS warehouse and let me know how that goes. I can tell you from my experience UPS was absolute HELL more like a slave house. Amazon warehouse I worked out is fairly automated so I got to do the boring stuff. and thats the one bad thing id complain about is that working at Amazon can get REALLY boring
They have built up on a good customer service no matter what.Jeff built up something amazing 🚫🧢
@TAHLIA Croft For abusing workers rights?
all at the expense of the seller.....anytime anything goes wrong the money used to pay to fix the error always falls back on the seller. Amazon sucks money from everyone is every direction to provide that "customer service"..if a product is lost no matter how it falls back on the seller to provide another one at their own expense......if an item in an order is incomplete or broken regardless how the seller is charged a fee and expected to replace it at no cost.....anytime you see "you might also like" the seller is charged an advertising fee......so if you want to sell successfully on Amazon you need a lot of capitol and a huge return on investment.....thats why big name brands dominate every page, because they can afford to pay the fees that Amazon charges for their products to be shown first or show in other searches.....if you don't pay the fee there is very little chance someone will see your product('s) not to mention all the charges they have in place just for anyone to sell on their site.
The next step for Amazon is to create trillions of robots that purchase and consume Amazon's products at an unprecedented scale.

So weird watching this and see all the stuff I do everyday in this warehouse lol
But, how many T-shirt’s and water bottles you won? 🤪😂
Stop flexing, its the shittest company to work for.
Those pick rates are probably for Universal Stations. ARSAW’s are 340 - 400 units per hour. Last night, someone on my shift was hitting 512 uph. The errors are referring to what are called “False Pick Shorts” and are the quickest way for an employee to get in trouble, you’re basically cancelling out/delaying a customer order by hitting “Missing Item” on the pick screen. If the item is discovered by a “Counter” to be in the bin and the picker didn’t pick it but instead opted to cancel out the order, that’s a big no no. Always check and confirm through scanning all items in a bin to confirm an item as missing before labeling it as such.
I work for the same technology from home ....I have to make sure the people keeping the products in that yellow box is kept safely and count the number of products went missing...we work at extremely fast pace and every time the employee at amazon does a mistake ..I have to correct it else I'm done for...
Shoutout to Code Bullet, his program was being shown in this video.
I can't wait to see when the robots will make a revolution keeping all the packages hostage
And the workers barely make enough for a prime membership great job jeff
If you’re gonna work at Amazon look for an FC warehouse and apply as a stower all you do is drive for 10 hours going up and down on the racks putting boxes in random locations you just gotta look for it. I honestly get less tired since I’m hardly walking all day I recommend it over the other positions
I've been an Amazon customer for at least 15 years. I have thought the world of Amazon, but since Jeff Bezos left the company I have noticed a small number of my orders have been incomplete and I have still been charged. However I have called the store and they have credited me. What surprised me today was I went to order an item, above the item was the word NEW. Under the item in small print was "used - good condition".
I know what the price should be new, it is expensive. When it is used it is cheap. In this instance the item price was identical.
I am dismayed to see the company changing, a company that had ethics high ethics, in my opinion untouched by any other company.
The only thing I can say that's good is I've ordered way more than I need to on Amazon and this will probably save me a fortune. I cannot see myself ordering from a company that is trying to mislead me, especially a company that once had a glowing reputation.
NeonCat9 where is located the word NEW for the item? Id In your cart?

Hello handsome
I might buy from them, but there's no way under the Sun I'd ever work there. Amazon loves automation. The robots can't go out on strike.
As a worker here, we definitely need a union. There are internal issues.
Isn’t Amazon viciously anti-union? I bet they’d resort to all kinds of dirty tactics to break your union, and I’m sure they already pay high-priced Union-busting consultants.
If you need it, start it, it only takes 2 to be a union.
@owen, who cares how amazon is on the stance. If enough people leave the job, and not enough people come to replace them, the union stands, that is what a union is for.
You will never get a union. They will close a warehouse before they let a union in the door.
@@MoonLiteNite Pretty soon you won't have anyone join a union because everything would be further automated! Better yet upgrade your skills early before things get fully automated!
Amazon is ruthless and efficient.

I still believe they should be paying their employees more since it’s a huge corporation
Just because its big doesn't mean it should pay more. The level of skill and the how easily replaceable you are determines your pay.
@@jonathanpinto6847 Wrong. Costco pays its employees very well because it is a huge corporation which does not ONLY care about billions of dollars
@@delicious9930 not every company has the same strategy
@@delicious9930 just because someone else does it, doesnt mean amazon should too, amazon isnt an NGO, its a buisness, if they start paying super high wages for a job that just involves moving boxes, the employees would become lazy, skill supply and demand is what determines the pay, and thats how it should be
I have been at an Amazon FC for almost a year as a stower and I love it. All these negative comments go find another job and quit whining. I guess it's the generation now. I am 49 and have worked hard all my life. My UPH is normally around 300 and I am never below the top 3 on my floor. You work hard and do a good job and you are rewarded.
From 4 days time to deliver past year to within 18 hour of ordering...insane without even paying any delivery charge... just wow.. That too in India with a very high market.
I am an Amazon seller and find this video very useful . Thank you so much.
Love it OR hate it, Amazon has changed the way we shop!
I work in a warehouse right now too. I get 40% less then my mate in an amazon warehouse. I would never in a million years swap with him. No way.
But at Amazon you get free skill training if you want to move into software
Amazon innovation is incredible, Amazon is on an absolutely insane level
they still don't have a picking robot which the key to improving efficiency imo
Amazon is always my go to in times of online shopping. no custom worries etc.
I used to be amazed when amazon packages took 2-3 days to arrive. These days it's like 3-5 days unless it comes from the warehouse in my state. But my local warehouse doesn't seem to have much because I rarely get items from it.

why do you want to appreciate poor working conditions? We should unionize amazon workers and support their rights.
That is a massive thing, I can even imagine how it works and in this video they did not mention where are all those items coming from 😱
they come in semi trailer driven by a human little by little just like EVERY OTHER retail outlet on the planet

"I know these guys tough challenge, but they're not on my level"
Love the way it manages
the robots are only in fulfillment centers. every sortation center still does that many miles per day, often making sorters stow 300 packages an hour per person. this translates to about 5-6 packages a minute. 1 package per 10 seconds in otherwords. this includes boxes up to 45 lbs, and many times there are aisles that get hit with up to several hundred packages per night of up to 45-50 lbs over the night. there was a night where 120 25 lbs computers came to one aisle. 1 picker had to pick them up by themselves, and 1 stower did the same. typically these come in on pallets and are received by these individuals over the course of 2 hours. that'd be something around 3000 lbs lifted within 2 hours. a typical sortation picker lifts up to 2500-3600 packages per night, while a typical sorter can see around 2200-2500 packages per night sorted depending on what comes to their aisles. it's very random and you never know what will come your way. personally, i find this job enjoyable, love the people for the most part. but yes, the demands of the job are NOT For every person.
DO NOT work in the sortation department if you are a person with severe health issues, are extremely overweight, are prone to injury, or have come from a job that has zero physical activity. if you do, you will have a higher risk of injury, complications with your health, or even long-term injury. in many cases, the injuries sustained within the job ARE NOT due to the demands of the station, but rather the state of physical health of the employee. that said, injuries DO occur. it is a significantly fast paced environment that very few can succeed in past the minimum requirement set by the expected pick and stow rates. IF you do plan to become an employee, my recommendation is to first get your health in order, look up proper lifting practices (many injuries occur due to failing to lift properly) and to specifically spend your first month walking everywhere you can, as quickly as you can. most warehouses are around 1/8 mile or more. you will be walking A LOT. secondly, get to know your co-workers.
WE HELP EACHOTHER. this is a team based environment, if one person is hurt or getting bogged down, HELP OUT. otherwise, no one will go out of their way to help you out when you are next in line getting bombarded by dozens of packages for your aisle set, or are too fatigued to continue in your area. if there is one person you dislike a lot within the warehouse, or you are the type to be non-personable.. at least do your best to help those around you. you don't need to talk, just assist where you can. it's always appreciated, because the person in front of you, yourself, or the person behind you might have spend the last 3 days rushing to hit their stow rate requirements, or are new and aren't up to the demands quite yet.
I wanted to buy a book. It was $35 at Amazon, free shipping, delivered the next day. I looked up on other book stores, it was about $65, plus $25 in shipping, 2 weeks to be delivered. I'm not rich and I hate Amazon, but how do you compete with that price and delivery?
Wow! They reward hard work with Amazon branded merch such as water bottles or t-shirts! What do they think humans are stupid?
No, Telekom did this bullshit in Hungary, they gave a $30 voucher for Christmas last year, that you could use to buy company merch. Of course a raise is too much to ask because oh no, it's corona now....
I've been trying for years to convince Amazon that the practice of shipping each item immediately (and most often, individually) as it's ordered is folly. ASK THE CUSTOMER how long they would be willing to wait! Instead of getting me that shaving cream tomorrow, let me opt to have it sent with the four other things I'm apt to order over the next two weeks. Heck, give me $1 credit for the "inconvenience" of going an extra day or week without shaving cream. Less boxes, less delivery madness, less package pilfering, less costly claims, etc.
This is an option, at least for Prime members.
This has already been done for the past several years. Boy, are you asleep at the wheel!

My first order from Amazon Sweden about a week ago:
One thing of the order arrived within a week. Another thing arrived within a day or two, but... they shipped the wrong thing (got a UK plug instead of a EU plug!). So now i have to wait until 29 December, about three weeks after order, for the (hopefully) correct one.
And i am not alone. Ridiculous translations on their home page, often very expensive products (cheaper to buy on other places) and often deliver the wrong thing.
Only 26 seconds to see first clip inside warehouse and what do you know, a perfect example of terrible manual handling with a full bend over and dead straight legs. You would've thought they'd pick this up before releasing any footage

I buy most everything on internet. Used to buy 100% from Amazon. I agree with Amazon convinience and speed. They are not watching price. Some repeat items I buy were 50% more than other suppliers. I hate the inconvienience of having to shop around for those mistakes. I hope someone at Amazon reads this.
