Judging by the comments in this thread I think people just want to be angry at Amazon. I don't think I would want to work for an Amazon fulfillment center but most of these tweets are just facts. If you don't think these facts are correct you should debate them and find sources to back up the claims. Amazon wouldn't have employees do this if they weren't confident with the information they were providing. I don't think it excuses the working conditions but I think its good to see actual facts instead of biased information that is full of shady wording.

Perhaps its time to refute these tweets with those sources then? Have a debate with them instead of just accepting one side of the equation.
Not OP, but to answer you myself from the article:
Tweet: Hello! Amazon does pay their employees minimum wage - any less would be illegal One thing that often gets overlooked are the employee benefits that Amazon provides for all employees - Health insurance, 401K, career/financial counseling.
Amazon pays minimum wage is a factual statement. Minimum wage is not a good wage for the job but its still factual. You either offer them health insurance, 401K, counseling or you dont. I would say that's also a factual statement. Whether or not you agree with it is your decision but actually having transparent facts is refreshing these days.
