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 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.
