The union win, at a Philadelphia store where workers are seeking higher wages, comes as Amazon is also fighting organizing efforts among some warehouse employees and delivery drivers.

    Hopefully they don’t just shutter the store and open a new one a town over. Maybe whole foods is the entry point for unions into other amazon subsidiaries.

      Yeah, that kind of thing is why unionization needs to happen firm-wide and not just in part of it.

        I completely agree that it needs to be amazon-wide. But the reality is it’s a lot easier to close down some nameless warehouse in the area when you can still deliver to your customers out of another nameless warehouse. It’s a lot harder to shut down a store that customers expect to exist and remain where it is. I do think we think alike in the fact that unionization can stem from their customer facing properties into their “business” properties that are hidden from the public.
