I’m done with this Dsp. Been three week and only work 4 days. Two days a week and I was told by them, I will get3 days one week and 4 days one week. Then in June it will be 4 days a week. I remember I had this same problem in Pittsburgh and I just stop going. So they took me off their onboard and I reapply. But I just had to call this 800 number and switch. Would it be the same way if I’m still active? Because I don’t even want to contact them no more. I have a interview today in a different location

Manager created a competition system in our area — good workers are quitting

I work in the damage/returns area at Amazon. Wanted to share what's been happening and see if others have experienced this. When pallets arrive, one coworker always picks the easiest items first, leaving the rest for others. This directly affects rate. Management is aware — they addressed it once early on, then stopped caring. Now the attitude from management is basically: "I only care about your numbers. If you fight over items, that's your problem." No intervention, no fair distribution system. Just blame when rates drop. Several good, experienced workers have already quit because of this environment. I've been tolerating it but it's starting to affect me mentally. Just wanted to know — has anyone dealt with this? Did anything actually change, or is this just how it goes?

Messing up in decant?

I'm a new hire and I just finished my 2nd week in decant and I probably messed up AT LEAST 10-20 times (that I know of).

My question is ... will my mistakes this week come back to me 😭? Is there a limit to how many mistakes you can make in this role? What are the chances I'm getting terminated for this 💀? Hypothetically if I get transferred to another role (because I suck so bad at this one 😭) what role would it be? Also what role do the totes go to after decanting? Is it sort or stow? And do they hate me for messing up so much 🥲?

My managers/PAs haven't spoken to me about it yet but I get anxiety about it every time they pass 😭 I also try to give the case/tote to problem solve whenever I catch my mistakes or I try to fix it myself (if I can figure it out).

Yall I know I'm stupid and that it's the easiest role but at the same time it's too easy I kind of zone out after a while or I get flustered with counting the 500-1200 piece cases of multiple asins 😮‍💨.

Also, does anyone by chance have any tips or tricks for this role? And is there any way to see what was already scanned into the tote? Anything will help at this point 🫠.

Title: Can an Amazon Operations salaried employee resign immediately by email in California?

I work in Amazon Operations in California and I’m considering resigning effective immediately instead of giving notice.

Can a salaried employee legally just send a resignation email, return company equipment (laptop, badge, etc.), and be done? Or are there potential legal/financial issues with leaving immediately?

I’m not really concerned about rehire eligibility or burning bridges — mainly trying to understand whether there’s any actual risk involved beyond that.

Would appreciate insight from anyone familiar with Amazon Ops, HR, or California employment law.

All right, so I screwed up. I transferred out of my DS and started at a Sort Center last Thursday 4/30 and I want to come back to the DS I was at.

After working my shifts for the week (Thursday, Friday, and Saturday), I've realized that I don't like the sort center. They gave me near-zero training and didn't even include me in any training classes they were doing for new hires. All the roles at a SC are completely different than in a DS.

So after my Saturday shift (last shift of the work week), I quit on the A to Z app because the system wouldn't let me start a transfer back because I have to wait 30 days. I don't have up to 30 days worth of UPT or PTO to hold out required 24+/- hour work weeks, so I just quit. I don't have negative UPT hours (I have 11 hours) so I should be considered in good standing.

I just want to ask those who have been in similar situations:

  1. Will I have to wait 30 days or, hopefully, less to be able to reapply to my old DS?

Or will the system make it 90-180 days because I left the sort center when I was there for 11 days (I set my last working day on my day off this Wednesday) even though my total tenure is 7 months working at Amazon? And I guess the company doesn't do instant rehiring anymore even for blue badgers in good standing with no negative UPT?

  1. I've accepted I'm probably going to be hired back to being a seasonal white badge hire if I do go to the DS.

Do we lose our vision insurance and free prime right away? I'm trying to buy some eye contact lenses for cheap asap before I lose the vision insurance. And free prime is nice.

So I been an afm in this facility since the building opened, I saw a grand total of two AFMs get promoted since I've been here. (Four and a half years)

Is there some sort of policy that stops AFMs from stepping up to lead the team that they started in?

Is the whole "amnesty is a great way to get promoted" spell that consistently get spread around a joke?

Our shift has had so many temporary QB's that I can't even count them on both hands over the past two years.

It's degrading and disrespectful to the people who put in extra effort and care into making sure the facility runs.

I think drivers mentally optimize routes better than some dispatch systems

After enough time doing deliveries I honestly think experienced drivers start mentally optimizing routes better than some routing systems do 😭

Not even trying to sound anti-tech.

But eventually you learn things the software never seems to fully understand: which apartment complexes are secretly time black holes, which roads look short but always destroy momentum, which stops should absolutely NOT be grouped together, where parking reality completely disagrees with the map, which neighborhoods become impossible after certain hours.

The route technically looks optimized on the screen. Meanwhile in reality one bad apartment stop ruins the next 20 deliveries, left turns become emotional events, traffic timing destroys the planned sequence, and somehow stop #87 ends up next to stop #14 for reasons known only to logistics gods. and I started paying way more attention to manual rerouting after realizing small adjustments sometimes saved more time/stress than the “optimized” default flow.

Feels like delivery routing eventually becomes part logistics and part psychological self-preservation.

I’m in college and will be starting as an Area Manager for a fulfillment center in the Bay Area, California. Does anyone know if Amazon tests for THC/weed? I know a bill was passed to not test for it but I’m not too sure. I smoked recently and am a bit worried. Any advice would be appreciated

I recently interviewed and got the AM position as a new grad. I am located in DFW but it seems all DFW positions are FULL... leaving me 2 sites that they offered about 8-9hrs away from home. I'm not one who is willing to move quite just yet... Luckily, they allowed me to be put on the waiting list for future openings in the area!

I wanted to ask if anyone had personal experience with knowing if the waitlist is ever successful. I understand it can be a case-by-case basis but I'd appreciate any input. Thanks!
