The Rise of Amazon

This is a podcast that looks at the rise of amazon. We're going to dive into the stories of two different amazon warehouses, one in coffee ville and one in staten island, new york. Amazon calls them fulfilment centrs. Hundreds of thousands of amazon employees work in these huge spaces. There are more than a hundred of them in the us alone. And amazon executives make careful, strategic decisions about wearing the us to put the warehouses. With that evolution, there's been big impacts for communities, both good and bad.
