I'm glad to hear that there are people at Amazon who have had good experiences. But I'm surprised at this attitude:

The hardest problems in technology, bar none, are solved at Amazon...They come here because innovation in technology happens here more than anywhere else...Today, we’re the world’s most innovative technology company that just happens to sell books, among other things

I wonder who outside the company would agree with that?

The idea that Amazon solves the hardest problems in technology, "bar none," is ridiculous.

Its nice to see a rebuttal of the original article and other post(s) about the article. I'm not sure I necessarily buy all of it but at the very least he does a good job of highlighting the clear bias the authors had. Just goes to show how completely worthless modern news media has become because of their dishonesty.
