Jeff Bezos is fired up over claims that Amazon is "brutal" to its workers. The only thing that strikes me as odd is that, if the story is true, you'd think a lot more people would have come forward by now.
The article doesn't describe the Amazon I know or the caring Amazonians I work with every day," Bezos wrote on Sunday. "I strongly believe that anyone working in a company that really is like the one described in the NYT would be crazy to stay. I know I would leave such a company.
