Facebook Has a Supreme Court and Now Amazon Has a Legal System

June 24, 2021

Nothing makes me laugh quicker than the antics of big technology high school management methods. I get a hoot out of the Facebook content supreme court. My hunch is that nice lunches are provided. The Amazon jury thing is a knee slapper too. Navigate to “Amazon Organizes Internal Juries to Consider the Final Fate of Employees at Risk of Being Fired.” Note: You will have to pay to read this real news article.

The write up says:

Amazon employees who are close to being fired can plead their case to an internal jury that’s partly selected by the company, according to documents reviewed by Insider and interviews with people familiar with the process. These appeals are part of Pivot, an Amazon performance-improvement program that some employees say is stacked against them.

Well, sure. The write up says:

… Employees are not allowed external legal support, people who have been through the program said. “You go in by yourself not understanding what you’re up against,” one person told Insider. The people spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of retribution from Amazon.

And what if one wins? No job guarantee.

Question: Who from the science club has a date for the prom? Answer: No one.
