I live in a small town in central KY. I moved here from Seattle. Everyone I meet thinks I work for Amazon because they have a warehouse here. They have a reputation for being slave drivers with high turnover and, interestingly, they may come into a problem my last company had: Their call center burned through the entire “employable” population of the surrounding area and had to close up shop and move to a different state.

Amazon has the lowest employee retention of Fortune 500 companies. The average tenure is less than one year.
