Amazon is more profitable than ever after a year of mass layoffs::The tech giant posted the largest quarterly operating income in its history on the back of cost-cutting and faster revenue growth in key divisions.
I always sign up for the free Prime trials just so I can get the satisfaction of cancelling.
How often does that happen? What’s the duration?
I was mostly being facetious, I try not to use Amazon. My wife does off and on and has used a free trial 3-4 times a year.
The trials are 30 days (in the US) and years ago, 4-5, I would just use a throwaway email and do a new trial every 30 days to keep Prime. Not sure if they guard against that at all now or not.
eat the rich. regulate monopolies
If this isn’t a sign for Amazon workers that their contribution is undervalued even at their current compensation, I don’t know what is. For fucks sake, unionize and become millionaires!
Cutting to profitability. A tired and true way to make the books look good.
(Not a typo)
All the news today about them reminded me to cancel my prime membership. Thanks, Barbara Streisand!
But you know their product is going to go to shit in a few quarters, so be sure to sell high.
TLDR: Amazon is a cunt
That’s generally how the economy works, unless you’re in a recession…
i mean yeah duh. that doesn’t mean it’s right or good to do mass layoffs
Money for me, but not for thee
Does that mean that massive layoffs work?
Nobody works after massive layoffs :)
Almost all of it is AWS. Which has a what, a 30% margin? Your money at work.
Haven’t ordered anything from their site for years and never felt better
Looking forward to this year’s layoffs/profits -amazon investors
