看亚马逊如何逼迫罹患癌症的新手妈妈离职

亚马逊最近因为过于恶劣的竞争文化遭到外界的批评。《纽约时报》报道指出亚马逊公司文化里有一种“有意的达尔文主义”。亚马逊被指奉行“汰弱留强”原则,苛刻对待员工,并对某些特殊员工持有偏见和歧视。在每年的员工淘汰会议上,那些表现不好的员工要么主动离任要么被开除。其中甚至有一些因为流产、患癌或者有其他个人危机的员工表示,他们会遭到不公正的待遇而被迫离开。

曾于2011年至2014年担任亚马逊出版编辑总监的Julia Cheiffetz发表了一篇文章,揭露了亚马逊在她生完孩子及战胜癌症后是如何逼迫她辞职的。

Julia Cheiffetz刚从Harper Collins出版社跳槽到亚马逊时还是十分兴奋的。

It was a big opportunity, one many people inside the publishing industry told me privately I would be crazy not to take. I was drawn to Amazon’s spirit of innovation, its agility, and its culture of excellence.

但是第二年Cheiffetz因为生孩子和患癌症请了五个月假后,亚马逊无端停止了她的社保。她不得不依靠他丈夫的保险来治疗。

等她回归公司后,就被列入“表现改善项目”中,声称是要“确保她能继续专注工作”,该项目实质是警告她濒临被炒边缘。Cheiffetz因为先后同时生孩子和患癌症而请假,足够成为她被炒的理由。

I was taken to lunch by a woman I barely knew. Over Cobb salad she calmly explained that all but one of my direct reports — the people I had hired — were now reporting to her. In the months that followed, I was placed on a dubious performance improvement plan, or PIP, a signal at Amazon that your employment is at risk. Not long after that I resigned.

在亚马逊女性员工因为生孩子或生病短暂离开工作岗位,回归后基本上会被列入“表现改善项目”中,最后迫使她们离任。

Cheiffetz称她现在很好地平衡了生活和工作,但是她对CEO Jeff Bezos歧视女性员工的观点仍表示强烈不满。

Jeff: You asked for direct feedback. Women power your retail engine. They buy diapers. They buy books. They buy socks for their husbands on Prime. On behalf of all the people who want to speak up but can’t: Please, make Amazon a more hospitable place for women and parents. Reevaluate your parental leave policies.

亚马逊极其严苛的工作环境,对女性及某些特殊员工的偏见和歧视,并对必将导致更多员工的流失。或许其CEO Bezos应该适当改变管理方式,学会换位思考,倾听员工的意见。

You can’t claim to be a data-driven company and not release more specific numbers on how many women and people of color apply, get hired and promoted, and stay on as employees.
