Tim Bray, a senior engineer at Amazon, resigned on Friday over concerns about the company’s decision to fire workers who were outspoken critics of its labor practices. In a blog post, Bray said he “snapped” when he learned Amazon fired Maren Costa and Emily Cunningham, two former user experience designers who criticized Amazon’s climate stance and treatment of warehouse workers. Amazon has also fired multiple warehouse employees who criticized working conditions at its facilities. https://www.cnbc.com/2020/05/04/amazon-engineer-resigns-over-companys-treatment-of-workers.html
