The program was two people from Amazon’ HR
department explaining the hiring protocol and
what they must have to do the jobs and what physical
characteristics are necessary. It requires standing
all day, working in different temperatures, and sorting.
There are three facilities, the large warehouse at I-70 and Tower, Amazon Fresh which are groceries and
Amazon Plus which are large bulky items.
Amazon bought Whole Foods which are becoming
the food division for Amazon.
Flex is the delivery system used. It is private citizens
using their own vehicles like Lyft or Uber.
The question was asked if Amazon was going to go
robotic. It is underway in Seattle where they do new
experimental things. There is an added delivery fee
added to orders.
