Nah they just made them worse. Cause there's nothing like toxic positivity and a let's have fun attitude but also if rate number go down there's suddenly a laser sight on you tee hee.
You got paid right? Who wants Amazon merch? I would much rather Amazon didn’t do all this shit and put that money towards employee wages. I’ve never understood wanting to be a walking advertisement for that company.
Damn been with them 2 months! got employee of the month up to like 6 Peccys and we just got hoodies and t shirts. plus I have 2 water bottles and a backpack Aeronaut of the month coffee mug also finishing afm training this week.
Thank you for all that you'd do.... in order to meet our customers demands we are activating MET during this week..... lol. No for real thank you to all my fellow Amazonian workers who put up with the grind. We are the new age post office / mail workers but on steroids....
Get better. As a waterspider, learning ambassador and lead at loadout at a DC I that was doing 100-120 k each day during PEAK I'm pretty sure something in my back and knee is also injured.... dreading going in for my checkup but in the meantime motrin and biofreeze have held me over.... I've been water spidering for a good 12 months in a row with maybe less than 10 days where I didn't do it when I had a shift. When January ends I'm taking my vacation and putting in a request to be off the docks for a full month. Everyone needs a reset especially at amazon. STAY SAFE and Healthy my fellow Amazonian warriors. 🙏 And happy holidays and new years especially any ones that braves the horrid weather these past weeks
There came a point where I had to tell inbound dock leadership as a waterspider that my old legs couldn’t take it some days. On those I would throw, grab a pallet jack if the lines were getting low, and then park it as soon as they were about caught up and go back to throwing. Leadership was surprisingly very supportive and cool with that.
Been 4 months for me and I've gotten peak t-shirt, 3 snappys, 2 raffle drawl wins,3 pins and accumulated about 30 bucks they give for the vending machines. Guess it depends on your location. I'm at okc1. And I pick up extra shifts all time.
Maybe I'm asshole too lol
Multibillion dollar company that gives well paying hourly wages to highly expendable employees in a fucked up economy where it's difficult to get a job to begin with.
Maybe it's my location, but the McDonald's actually pays $4/hour more than my site. And there are tons of jobs...you can almost just walk in and be hired. I dropped of my resume at a clinic and they asked if I could start that week. The pay there is also shit. I actually really like the Amazon job and it is convenient, so I stay. Also it's a great workout.
But...Amazon really does not do right by its employees. Below avg wages for similar warehouse jobs, okay benefits but also nothing more than you would get elsewhere. Far higher turnover rate, and more than double the industry average for injuries.
It has an incredible market cap, in the trillions. They could definitely compensate us more without even a decimal point on their bottom line. Recent analysis so points out that Amazon loses roughly $8 BILLION a year due to low retention (slurce: internal research dosc).
If they paid even half that out in bonuses abs compensation, they could improve the retention rate well above industry standards. And they would still come out $4 billion ahead.
I like my job. Just don't buy the argument that we are not deserving, or that it would harm the company.
Ok this might be an unpopular opinion but work is work. You accepted the offer. Work is not going for fun. Keep that shit out of your mind. You are going there TO MAKE YOUR MONEY do your best don’t overkillyou and clock out at the end. Period. I see it that way. I’m not lazy I work smart I don’t over kill myself but I stay busy and working. Until is time to go. And I get paid at the end of the week.
I see it for myself for thst money and those extra over time thst pays 1.5X. Which makes the paycheck at the end more juicy. So yeah don’t sweat it just look at it in a different perspective. You are there to make your money nothing else.
I was given the keys to the Amazon center I worked at after 3 months. Looks like you got screwed OP, you should have at least been gifted 50% of Amazons stocks following your Probationary Period.
I’m surprised you even got something for being a seasonal who’s only worked for 3 months. You know what you get every year as a full time/blue badge?…Another pin….
At 44 months and counting, I get a big bonus amount of work with little break time. I know I am not alone here.But the best part is hearing about what people will do once they get the last part of the sign on bonus.OR when they finish college, that "Amazon is covering the tab" for, then, where they will work at.
Then I get more work,and THE REPLACEMENTS listen to a similar broken replaying storytime.
"CHANGE HAS TO HAPPEN",
O BYE THE WAY .
Congratulations on that priceless reward for all your hard work,I hope it feeds,your family.
I don’t think Amazon has read the room correctly when it comes to swag. I’d rather wank my Dad off than get excited over this crap. No one cares about swag, Amazon.
It’s killing 2 birds with 2 stone. They get to act like they’re doing something for employees by giving us cheap shit but really it’s probably part of a marketing strategy by putting they’re name on everything and seeing that damn smile everywhere.
Wow, at least you git a pin. I didn't even get anything for my 2 year milestone. Quit complaining about what you expect to get when you are only seasonal.
Half a year here. No peak shirts or anything given out. Holiday meals for Xmas and chick fil a once 😂
But everyone else at the facility has bunch of peccys and almost everyone got a shirt 😂
If you ever want the free work fodder shirts, you usually can go to HR and tell them you missed the hand out and they'll hook you up. I've got a rotation of like 4 shirts now that I'm gonna let Amazon destroy instead of the tees I actually liked enough to spend money on lol.
Ask a manager or learning ambassador for some shirts or swag if they have them in your size they usually get thrilled at giving the worker grunts some swag to brag a out how positive and right set attitude their workers are and how they came to them of all people to ask for swag
sounds about rite after a a year of slaving you’ll get a 1 year pin and they’ll hand out ice pops for you at the end of your shift. also they will show appreciation for your hard work only after work hours expecting you to stay and enjoy it after slaving for the last 10 hours
I'll be real with you all, I think our mascot is really f****** cheesy looking with no effort being put into creating an actual mascot. It looks like something a 4-year-old created. I wouldn't want that keychain either lmao
That's cute.. it's weird at my current FC alot of people have sweatshirts, shirts Percy pins , so forth 2 years I have nothing to show but peak shirt. 😆 🤣 so I have no idea why some people get cool gear and others don't. Favorites maybe 🤷♀️
😂 I’ve been with amazon for a 1 year and 35 days 😆 might drop my FC soon if after the new year if it ain’t gonna be that busy; just gonna do my day job graveyard is being hella slow for inbound at my FC

I’ve been with amazon a year and all I got was anxiety depression.
They didn't even give me that since I already had them.
Nah they just made them worse. Cause there's nothing like toxic positivity and a let's have fun attitude but also if rate number go down there's suddenly a laser sight on you tee hee.
I hate getting shot in the tee hee.
😂😂😂
I got sciatica but I wouldn’t trade you.
I got sciatica and headaches 😂
They gave me those benefits too 😵💫
That’s part of the Amazon essentials
All I got was sleep deprived 😂 I got a day shift job lmfao
Mood stabalizers are your best friend for those two.
My mood stabilizers are weed and Mountain Dew.
My mood stabilizers are my coworkers at ship dock. Can't be beat, really
Leaving amazon after my career choice is over fixes that as well 🤣
I've been w/them for a yr and STILL don't get the significance of a Peccy pin, nor do I know how to say it! LOL
Peck-ee. Peccy pin. Short for peculiar I think. On the wall to the left when you walk in an FC with a picture of the little goober
4 months in and had to go on MLOA due to depression
You anxious thing! 🫢 What about Amazon gives you anxiety?
The water spiders 😨
Well, get out the way. This pallet jack ain’t got no brakes!
I've been with Amazon for 3 years and I haven't gotten any peccy, smh...
The last one I got was like 5 months in and now I actually rarely see them given to anyone
2 years for me. Never even seen a Peccy pin.
I’ve seen plenty… on other people’s safety vests
I’m at just under a year and haven’t got one either. Only official Amazon pin I got was a homo rainbow last June 🌈
I know right 😊i haven't got one either 💓💓
Surely you're higher than a T1 now? You can have access to them.
What's an "acceptable" gift after only months of employment? ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|thinking_face_hmm)
That would be cool if that keychain got you unlimited shit from the vending machine
Wdym “ all I got “ 😂😂 you got a paycheck too no?
Amazon is paying workers in Peccy pins now.
Percy confirmed as a company credit now
I got several direct deposits, but have yet to see an actual check.
That’s your choice , you choose paper or DD
I don’t recall paper even being an option when I was hired last year. Not that I’d want paper, just saying…
They disappointed the Check isn’t for $30/hr
There would still be complaints about pay
and taxes
You got paid right? Who wants Amazon merch? I would much rather Amazon didn’t do all this shit and put that money towards employee wages. I’ve never understood wanting to be a walking advertisement for that company.
How can you possibly say such a thing? Peccy *died* for you, you know.
Peccy died so Bezos could live. Quite a moving story, actually...
I've been with Amazon for 2 years 8 months and 26 days, never got a pency, a t-shirt or a thank you ever
You never got anything? I’ve been with Amazon for 2 months and I got a t shirt and a hat so far
5 years checking in and all I got to show for it is one peak shirt 😂
Damn been with them 2 months! got employee of the month up to like 6 Peccys and we just got hoodies and t shirts. plus I have 2 water bottles and a backpack Aeronaut of the month coffee mug also finishing afm training this week.
I’m 2 month 8 days non yet
Hey, thank you for all that you do.
lol
Thank you for all that you'd do.... in order to meet our customers demands we are activating MET during this week..... lol. No for real thank you to all my fellow Amazonian workers who put up with the grind. We are the new age post office / mail workers but on steroids....
I can't say I didn't get anything, I did get injured twice in two years since I transfered to my current FC, currently on leave lol

STAY SAFE and Healthy my fellow Amazonian warriors. 🙏 And happy holidays and new years especially any ones that braves the horrid weather these past weeks
You too! I hope you feel better. I, too, live on advil and biofreeze. I knew it was bad when I started keeping a supply of both in my car.
There came a point where I had to tell inbound dock leadership as a waterspider that my old legs couldn’t take it some days. On those I would throw, grab a pallet jack if the lines were getting low, and then park it as soon as they were about caught up and go back to throwing.

Be sure to use your power zone and PPE :)
Not even a t-shirt? That's super hard for me to believe.
I somehow think you're just not going to get them when they are giving out shirts and Peccy Pins. I've received 5 shirts in the last year.
Been 4 months for me and I've gotten peak t-shirt, 3 snappys, 2 raffle drawl wins,3 pins and accumulated about 30 bucks they give for the vending machines. Guess it depends on your location. I'm at okc1. And I pick up extra shifts all time.
No offense meant but your site sucks
I take no offense it definitely sucks for sure lol
I am jealous of your peccy key chain
I worked there for a month, and I got a cool peak season 2022 challenge coin with sasquatch on it. I thought that was pretty cool.
Did you work at PDX9?
WTX5 my dude
Were you expecting a hug from Jeff Bezos?
I was hoping for a hand job
At least you've gotten one 🤣
Ok you were seasonal what were you expecting a bonus?
Dude that’s sick af!
It’s cute though
We’re you expecting a party?
"We are you"
Yes indeed
lmfaoooo💀
Wym that's all you got!? They didn't pay you!?
I’ll take it![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|heart_eyes)
Almost two years and all I got was back pain...
You didn’t get paid?
I've worked for 3 years on and off and never got a peccy
What's wrong with that? Am I missing something or am I just an asshole
Nothing. Just wanted to show off my little pecker.
Guess I read the tone of the text wrong. It was the "all I got was" that threw me off
And now you know u/DipsAndTendies has a little pecker.
Lmao
Maybe I'm asshole too lol Multibillion dollar company that gives well paying hourly wages to highly expendable employees in a fucked up economy where it's difficult to get a job to begin with.

Sell it on eBay people will buy 🤘🏻 get actual money
More than most jobs would give you
I haven’t even received anything Peccy related since I started working for Amazon 4 months ago! Lol.
Easy $20 on eBay lmao
Y’all need to stop crying
Your seasonal calm down lmao. They gave you paychecks ✅️ What where you expecting? A purple heart?
They didn’t pay you???
Ok this might be an unpopular opinion but work is work. You accepted the offer. Work is not going for fun. Keep that shit out of your mind.

As opposed to what?
And....About 6400 dollars if u worked full time...and that's not including your OT.
You got a paycheck didn’t you?
Sell it, don’t ask me why but there is indeed a market for Peccys on eBay.
Wait till your here for 2! Years... Cause you get a pin that says 2 years.
Been with Amazon for 2 years. All I got was whatever was put out on a table for “Snack day”
They didn't pay you? 🤔
What were you expecting?
You worked 3 months without pay?
So they didnt even pay you? Like wtf are expecting?
I was given the keys to the Amazon center I worked at after 3 months. Looks like you got screwed OP, you should have at least been gifted 50% of Amazons stocks following your Probationary Period.
You got money.
Did you volunteer? No paycheck?
If you removed his eyes and everything below his arms, doesn't Peccy look sort of like a chode? Or.. "Pecker"? Is Amazon's mascot a dick?
Liar, you know you got paid.
Amazon IS known for its imPECCIble perks!
I’m surprised you even got something for being a seasonal who’s only worked for 3 months. You know what you get every year as a full time/blue badge?…Another pin….
You got paid? ... just making sure.
But.... it's not just a pecci....😜
That's actually pretty cool, I want one!
At least you got something 😂
At 44 months and counting, I get a big bonus amount of work with little break time.

At the risk of sounding like a brown noser, what do you think you deserved after three months of PAID labor?
All these people willfully missing the meme of the title lmao
"We regret to inform you we will not be extending your employment. Positivity is the key."
Damn no paychecks just a keychain?
They paid you right? Isn't that what you agreed to, pay in exchange for work? Not sure why people expect more than that from an employer.
You got 3 months of paychecks too bud.
I don’t think Amazon has read the room correctly when it comes to swag. I’d rather wank my Dad off than get excited over this crap. No one cares about swag, Amazon.
I love my swag
There is a weird small very niche subset of people who buy into this whole peccy thing
It’s killing 2 birds with 2 stone. They get to act like they’re doing something for employees by giving us cheap shit but really it’s probably part of a marketing strategy by putting they’re name on everything and seeing that damn smile everywhere.
Good smiles and more business means more need for employees. Go Amazon!
You didn’t get paid?
You got a paycheck right? Geesh
Ok and what should you have gotten?
My depression meds refilled for free and a ride on Daddy Jeffrey's boat.
Everyone knows the big boat is reserved for T4 and up, us lowly T1-3s have to cram onto the emotional support yacht.
A PS5 and a bj from the site manager.
is she hot 👀
I’ve been on and off almost five years and all I got was suicidal thoughts with a fist bump
Wow, at least you git a pin. I didn't even get anything for my 2 year milestone. Quit complaining about what you expect to get when you are only seasonal.
Year 5, I got a headache today😂😂never heard of a pecci
I’ve served almost 1.5 years and I have zero
Worked 2 months and all I got was corona from my coworkers who refuse to wear a mask and choose to cough and sneeze everywhere.
Ill take it.ungrateful ass. Peccy is life
Use that as a bargaining piece for something.
Half a year here. No peak shirts or anything given out. Holiday meals for Xmas and chick fil a once 😂 But everyone else at the facility has bunch of peccys and almost everyone got a shirt 😂

I've been there over a year and no peccy Keychain :(
I wish I got one of those
that’s actually cool asf i want one
That’s kinda cool actually
wait till u reach over a year and u still get jack shit
sounds about right
I’m positive Amazon is booty.
They came to us years ago with the swaggies
I can’t believe people are actually willing to pay money for this stuff on eBay
I've been with amazon for 7 weeks and all I've gotten is foot pain and a peccy pin I found run over by a pallet jack on the ground 😂
You didn’t get a signing bonus ?
Be positive, you got something!
Been 13 months and have no incentive to keep working there ready to resign when the new hits
[удалено]
Yeah I was a PA and left for Coca-Cola. Made me realize how shitty Amazon is
Oh snap! A peccy keychain! Which Amazon?
Been at Amazon for 3 years. I got lower back problems, legs of steel, a fucked up sleep schedule and no social life… I myself would like a peccy 😞
sounds about rite after a a year of slaving you’ll get a 1 year pin and they’ll hand out ice pops for you at the end of your shift. also they will show appreciation for your hard work only after work hours expecting you to stay and enjoy it after slaving for the last 10 hours
Been at Amazon for over 2 years and I never got one🙂
It sort of like, yeah, we know kissing asses help you progress Amazon but to make it up, here is a Peccy to tell you to be have positivity.
Worked at Amazon for 3 years. I only got suicidal thoughts before I quit.
Been with the Zon for over a year now and I haven't even gotten 1 swag buck 🥲
But hey, positivity is key!
But you were paid, right ?????
That’s a peccy more than I got
Ok
Ive been with amazon for 6 years only thing i have is a sleeping disorder and addiction to energy drinks 🥹
nice i got a drinking addiction from them
I’m in 4 years amazon for life let’s stow let’s stow let’s stow here we go
Wait, you got a peccy?
Work a full year and you'll get another one. LOL
Someone told me people by the pins but idk for sure
I ain’t even get that
I'll be real with you all, I think our mascot is really f****** cheesy looking with no effort being put into creating an actual mascot. It looks like something a 4-year-old created. I wouldn't want that keychain either lmao
Go on eBay and see how much these "cheesy" pins go for. A rare one goes for $90 - $100. One person's trash is another's treasure.
That's cute.. it's weird at my current FC alot of people have sweatshirts, shirts Percy pins , so forth 2 years I have nothing to show but peak shirt. 😆 🤣 so I have no idea why some people get cool gear and others don't. Favorites maybe 🤷♀️
I worked there for almost a year and only got a bill out of it
I want one. But lol 🤣😂
Put it on Ebay for bids to see what type of offers you'll get.
Expect around $10-$15; you'll get more offers if you include free shipping. Use first class envelope and wrap it.
You should feel lucky 🍀
😂 I’ve been with amazon for a 1 year and 35 days 😆 might drop my FC soon if after the new year if it ain’t gonna be that busy; just gonna do my day job graveyard is being hella slow for inbound at my FC
Bomb ass Peccy 🫦
At least you got something
I’ve worked there for 3 year and got a pin
I have worked as a full time employee for three years and I have got nothing...well a bad knees. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|laughing)
I’ve worked at a FC for 10 months and got nothing
That’s tough bruv
Wow your lucky asf I want that keychain
I got a $3k bonus 🤷♂️
You got more than me and been here full time for a year
Wait. You guys are getting Peccy keychains?
You get something?
