Amazon Wants to Know How Its Employees Feel Every Day - Bloomberg Business

Probably not a scenario used to beta test the new AWS IoT (Internet of Things) platform...

"Amazon.com Inc. wants to know how its white-collar workers are feeling.
Over the past few months, the online retailer has been ramping up efforts to get regular feedback from corporate staffers about their work environments. The effort is being expanded two months after a scathing newspaper report portrayed the online retailer as a pressure cooker where worker hardships are ignored and back-stabbing is encouraged.
Dubbed Amazon Connections, the internal system poses questions daily to employees to collect responses on topics such as job satisfaction, leadership and training opportunities, people with knowledge of the initiative said. The company started the program at its fulfillment centers staffed mostly with blue-collar workers last year and has been rolling it out to other departments since then, first hitting the corporate ranks this summer."
