Does Amazon pay well enough to justify staying there? Isn't it one of the most parsimonious and cut-throat company out there? Make billions but pay their workers shit, is what I came to hear, but dunno how true that is.

Their workers are actually paid decent wages. It's just that Amazon also tries extracting every ounce of productivity they can from them.

Yeah I've always heard that Amazon pays quite well. The only issue is that they'd work you to death in their warehouses if possible. It's a job that's good for quick cash but should never be a career.

That's hard to tell, because everyone tends to stick with the best job they could have.
