I want to clarify why I characterized this comment as snarky. The comment implies that high standards at Amazon has created a corporate culture of employee abuse. This makes no sense -- high standards and employee abuse are orthogonal.

Employee abuse is morally wrong and almost certainly illegal. It needs to be exposed and challenged whenever it occurs. But be careful about taking stories published in Business Insider (or any similar online publication) at face value. Consider if this is a reputable source before repeating their claims.
