Compania cu venituri record în care angajaţii trăiesc din ajutoare sociale. Ce spune gigantul despre salarii
A report reveals that many American workers, including those at major companies like Amazon, rely on social assistance despite record corporate profits. The share of economic output going to employees has dropped to its lowest since 1947, while corporate profits have surged. Over 12,000 Amazon employees receive food assistance, and many work full-time yet still struggle to meet basic needs. Amazon disputes the report's conclusions, claiming their wages and benefits are competitive. The trend of declining employee compensation is linked to reduced union representation and a shift towards subcontracting. Experts warn that rising AI adoption may further pressure wages.
