In Germany, Worker Protests Present Tough Challenge to Amazon

In Germany, Worker Protests Present Tough Challenge to Amazon

The final week of April brought some unusual challenges to Amazon’s (AMZN) CEO, Jeff Bezos. The billionaire founder of Amazon was in Berlin, Germany, to collect an innovation award on April 24. However, just outside the building where Bezos received his award, more than 400 Amazon workers in Germany—as well as some from countries such as Italy and Poland—gathered to stage a protest against Bezos, according to media reports.
