The Internet user explained that in her time at the company she did learn a lot, despite the bad employment experience.
The user added that the company’s philosophy is always to achieve as much as possible, with as few people as possible.
The former employee explained that the company denied its workers the payment of bonuses, for not registering sales in Mexico.
Complaints about the poor working conditions of companies have become a recurring content that we can find on social networks. Like the case of a former Amazon Mexico worker who narrated on her Twitter account how her experience was while boarding at the American company.
According to data from Statista, the American e-commerce giant embarked on an unprecedented global wave of hiring in 2020, according to results published by the company itself, it created 500,000 new jobs worldwide last yearand another 170,000 were added in the first nine months of 2021, adding to its already sizeable workforce.
Likewise, the statistics platform indicates that Amazon has increased its number of workers steadily since 2010. With approximately 1.5 million employees worldwide, the company, which increases its income every year internationallyis on track to overtake Walmart and become the world’s largest private employer.
This is what it’s like to work at Amazon Mexico
An Internet user identified as @marianaunlmtd recounted her experience while working at the e-commerce giant in Mexico, where he assured that most of the stories about the poor working conditions of the company are real.
Well there you go.
If you can, before agreeing to work at Amazon MX, think about it very, very well.
Most of the stories you hear about poor working conditions are true.– M from Motomari… (@marianaunlmtd) May 18, 2022
It also explains that, as its employees, yes you learn “a lot”but the company’s philosophy “is always to achieve as much as possible, with as few people as possible”.
“That results in exhaustion, or as it is commonly called, ‘burn out’”said.
She adds that she worked in the Customer Service area so I never thought that she could end up very tired due to the demands that were made of her.
Fortunately, I searched well, asked for help, and found a great job where my life radically changed for the better.
But the company that grew the most during the pandemic, which sold literally everything, says they had no profit in 2021, and no PTU for employees.– M from Motomari… (@marianaunlmtd) May 18, 2022
I asked a former colleague of whom I should contact to ask how they were going to make the payment, and she tells me what they were told “officially”, that there were no earnings, and that there was only a discretionary bonus. Anyway if she gave me an email. pic.twitter.com/XzI7hxWdCm

Faced with this denial of bonus payments for employees by the company, the Internet user explains that they explained to her that “That AmazonMX did not make a profit in any area, except for Web Services, and therefore only they received a bonus.”
And therefore, only they received a bonus.
Excuse me, although I know that they opened stores in different parts of the country, I know how sales grew, BECAUSE I ATTENDED CUSTOMERS.– M from Motomari… (@marianaunlmtd) May 18, 2022
We had to ride the waves of increased orders, handling chat, phone and mail at the same time.
We work every Prime Day, every Special Sale, every Black Friday and good weekend, like crazy, because we have to get the most work done with few people.– M from Motomari… (@marianaunlmtd) May 18, 2022
“So from the heart, if you plan to work there for the experience, keep in mind that the employees will never be a priority, nor will their rights or well-being. Take what serves you to be there, and look for places that do care about their people. If they exist. I know, I promise”, adds the last tweet of the Internet user.
These stories have become very common on social networks, especially from brand workers like Amazon who have earned many complaints, especially in the United States where governments like New York accuse them of having poor working conditions.
Likewise, brands such as Starbucks are also in a fight against their employees for the working conditions they provide.
This only reflects the opinion of the consumer and the conversation that it generates in the digital pulse, for which Merca 2.0 requested the position of the brand in order to tell both sides of the story; however, so far it has not been received. The note will be updated in case of a response.
