Amazon: How Many Employees?

February 4, 2020

DarkCyber noted a story in Gadgets 360. The title reveals the factoid: “Amazon Now Employs 798,000 People Worldwide, 500,000 in the US.” Is there a company which employs more people?

The answer is, “Yes.”

And that company is Walmart. This outfit allegedly employs 1.5 million people in the US and more than two million worldwide.

The write up has another interesting factoid:

Walmart, however took 35 years to build a workforce of similar size to Amazon today. Amazon reached the milestone in 24 years, more than a decade sooner.”

DarkCyber discovered that Walmart also advertises the availability of DDR2 SPD 800 memory when that product is not available. Hopefully a couple of Walmart employees will update the memory inventory data.
