What it's like at an Amazon Fulfillment Center

Safety. Your safety is important to us, so we provide protective gear. All teams share safety tips daily.

Surroundings. You'll be operating and working around moving machines - order pickers, stand-up forklifts, turret trucks, and mobile carts.

Activity. Some activities may require standing in one place for long periods, walking around, or climbing stairs.

Temperature. Even with climate controls, temperatures can vary between 60°F and 90°F in some parts of the warehouse; on hot days, temperatures can be over 90°F in the truck yard or inside trailers.

Noise level. It can get noisy at times. We provide hearing protection if you need it.

Dress code. Relaxed, with a few rules to follow for safety. Comfortable, closed-toe shoes are required and protective safety footwear are required in select business units. Depending on the role or location, Amazon provides a $110 Zappos gift code towards the purchase of shoes, in order to have you prepared for your first day on the job.
