only in liberal america can a person make less money after getting a huge pay raise

[DoughtyOne]

LOL

[miss marmelstein]

What a cheapskate.

[Nifster]

Sometimes people don’t realize what total compensation actually means

[Cecily]

Bezos stiffs his employees yet again.

[robel]

And that’s how you become the wealthiest person in the country. Bezos may be the most hated boss today.

[conservative98]

he said he could have earned a few thousands of dollars more from the incentive programs. “Amazon isn’t giving its employees a raise, they’re taking money from us,” he told Yahoo Finance. “It only looks good if folks don’t know the truth.”

Typical. Amazon sounds like eBay with their new “lower” fees every year which are actually increases.

[FoxInSocks]

Well, $15 per hour was the main objective. Now they have the “living wage” a few people wanted.

[stylin19a]

and the feds will get a piece of it...a tax revenue increase without having to vote on it.

[kempster]

Take it back from those idiots.

[babble-on]

It’s funny. All those articles I’ve read about how miserable and underpaid Amazon’s workers are, I never saw a paragraph about the stock grants and the thousands of dollars worth of bonuses.

[WKUHilltopper]

LOLOLOL. You didn’t think your socialist god wasn’t going to screw you? Suckers are easy.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Seems that the new system penalizes the "go-getters" and hard workers by eliminating stock options and bonuses.

Now it's a "level playing field" and the slackers will get paid the same as the hustlers.
 

[Hyman Roth]

They got their precious $15.00 an hour and still lose. It must suck being a liberal idiot.

[ObozoMustGo2012]

[ they said they could lose thousands of dollars that they would have collected from the stock and monthly-bonus programs.]

Oh, the irony is too rich!!!!

[DakotaGator]

But for some Amazon employees, the excitement didn’t last very long as they learned that existing financial incentives and bonus programs, including stock and monthly bonuses, that usually boost paychecks will be eliminated starting November 1.

Amazing! Amazon actually has to fund the pay raise? Why don't they just create money out of thin air like the federal government does?!

I especially liked the provision that Amazon's worker compensation will no longer be incentive based. Now all of its employees can compete for being the laziest worker without being fired.

[Safetgiver]

WHAT??? They expecy me to pay for everyone else??? Bernie never told ME this shit!!!!

[mewzilla]

Be careful what you wish for.

The employees are just more roadkill on the left’s highway to socialism.

[Kickass Conservative]

They = Bezos = Democrat = Trump Hater...

Time to blame Trump’s Tax Reform Bill.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

The proverbial Turd in the punchbowl. Sounds exactly like something Obama would do. Well Bernie, see what Socialism vs. Meritocracy get's you?
