Amazon is treating their employees like sh*t. That is what happens when American employees are forced to compete against slave labors in China. It is a race to the bottom. You don’t like getting treated like sh*t??? Too f*cken bad… Where else you gonna work? Do you have any other options? Now get back to work and shut up…..

Goris said he also saw a co-worker pass out at the water fountain and paramedics bringing people out of the warehouse in wheelchairs and on stretchers.

"I never felt like passing out in a warehouse and I never felt treated like a piece of crap in any other warehouse," Goris said.

His complaints are not unique.

Other workers said they experienced brutal heat inside the sprawling warehouse during the summer heat waves. Amazon even arranged to have paramedics parked in ambulances outside, ready to treat workers who dehydrated or suffered other forms of heat stress.

Those who couldn't quickly cool off and return to work were sent home or taken to area hospitals.

They also said they were pushed to work at a pace many could not sustain. Employees were frequently reprimanded regarding their productivity and threatened with termination, workers said.

The consequences of not meeting work expectations were regularly on display, as employees lost their jobs and got escorted out of the warehouse.

Such sights encouraged some workers to conceal pain and push through injury lest they get fired as well, workers said.
