If it's anything like my work and their RTO a few things.

  1. hR is well aware of attrition rates and I bet they're through the roof
  2. Any new hires are probably not the best or brightest they could expect to hire

So expect quality at Amazon to decline. It may not be outwardly visible but mark my words for those that are still there it will devolve into a chaotic shit show of overworked employees that are left backfilling work for those who left and the incompetence that came in.

I canceled my Prime membership earlier this year because of that decline in quality. I wish everyone could, but thanks to the loss of retail throughout the country many can't afford not to have it.

My relatively poor experience with Prime I attribute to deliberate bad choices rather than lack of workers. It probably doesn't help to be sure, but even with the most awesome staff, I think Prime was going to suck no matter what. The whole economy is particularly "screw the customers over, get us money now, no need to attract or retain customers now"
