20 Worst Companies to Work For (Updated 2023)

  1. Amazon

Being replaceable is a very bad thing when corking for a mega corporation. There's a good chance you've heard one or more horror stories about working as an Amazon fulfillment worker. For example, there are high injury rates. Similarly, there is the intrusive surveillance of workers. This kind of thing is no coincidence. Amazon knew very well that such practices alienated its workers. It just didn't care in its pursuit of profits. Indeed, it wanted a high turn-over rate because of concerns that long-term workers would become either angry or complacent.

Even worse, Amazon has been linked to huge human resources issues and even human rights violations in Saudi Arabia. The experiences of Amazon fulfillment workers are so well-known that people see such positions in a more negative light than ever before. The situation is so bad that PCMag and other sources reported on an internal memo saying Amazon is expected to see a worker shortage as early as 2024 if nothing changes. Avoid working for them if at all possible.
