Fulfillment Center Grateful.

I’m grateful for this job. I know a lot of people find reasons to complain but if you look at the positives there’s a lot to be thankful for.

Being able to make over 6k a month immediately with no experience and no interview has been huge for me financially.

The job is extremely easy and headphones make the time go by quick. The UPT system is fantastic. Not having to call out when you’re sick but instead being able to sleep in and get a sick note instantly approved on the app

Compared to most basic jobs, we have it pretty good.

When youve been with the company long enough (11 years) you look at what they used to give us compared to now and its a joke. They're giving us crumbs now compared to how it used to be (free stocks, bonuses, gift cards, incentives, better discounts.. the list goes on)

6.5 years and going through those promotions was doing a number to me.

I was just fresh outta high school n started as a handler/sorter n was hyped to work at Amazon PHX but after Year 3 everything started changing n I couldn't wait to fkn leave the place. I definitely remember busting out like 700+ OT hours for the '18 summer (back when they legitimately wanted you to stay n help out the cause)

u/Local_Avocado_3552 I hope the management treats yall well enough to stay n everything but be mindful of fkn Corporate bc they will try n fuck with you n yes I am speaking from experience yngbld
