>Workers on the picking side are encouraged to work fast in order to maintain their so-called rate. If workers rate falls below expectations employees can be disciplined and ultimately sacked.
>According to one ex-employee this rate can be challenging to fulfill 120 items per hour when they started at the company, rising as high as 280 items per hour just three years later. Errors are also punished according to the same ex employee. Workers were once permitted one error per 1,000 items but now they're only allowed one per 2,200. The rates only get more challenging during prime day when sales on amazon skyrocket.
>One way amazon encourages workers to make rates is through gamification or making the whole thing into a game. So instead of a plain old-fashioned graph telling workers where their productivity stands in relation to the rate, workers instead play and compete on in-house games with names like picks in space mission racer or castle crafter, so essentially the faster and more accurately employees pick stock the faster, their little pixelated car moves around the track. Other incentive schemes such as in-house currency swag bucks reward hard work with amazon branded merch such as water bottles or t-shirts.
