The program, called “Pay to Quit,” or ”The Offer,” offered warehouse workers up to $5,000.Amazon spokeswoman Karen Riley Sawyer told Barron’s via email late Tuesday night that the company is “only providing ‘The Offer’ to graduates of Career Choice to support their transition to a new career should they choose to leverage their new certifications.”Technology site The Information reported the news of the program’s pause earlier Tuesday, citing documents verified by a current warehouse employee.In an April 2014 SEC filing, Amazon founder and then-CEO Jeffrey Bezos said of Pay to Quit: “It was invented by the clever people at Zappos, and the Amazon fulfillment centers have been iterating on it. Pay to Quit is pretty simple. Once a year, we offer to pay our associates to quit. The first year the offer is made, it’s for $2,000. Then it goes up one thousand dollars a year until it reaches $5,000.”“The headline on the offer is ‘Please Don’t Take This Offer.’ We hope they don’t take the offer; we want them to stay.” he wrote. “Why do we make this offer? The goal is to encourage folks to take a moment and think about what they really want. In the long-run, an employee staying somewhere they don’t want to be isn’t healthy for the employee or the company.”Amazon bought Zappos in 2009.Amazon, which raised its starting pay to $15 an hour in 2018, has been competing with other employers for workers amid a pandemic-driven labor shortage. Last fall, the company announced plans to hire another 275,000 permanent and seasonal employees, offering them $18 an hour plus $3,000 signing bonuses in some areas. It also offered to pay some workers’ college tuition starting this month.Amazon is the nation’s second-largest private employer after Walmart, and employs about 1 million U.S. workers. It has hired hundreds of thousands of workers during the pandemic to handle its increase in order volumes.","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":9090648107,"gmtCreate":1643176067771,"gmtModify":1676533782119,"author":{"id":"3583029437333652","authorId":"3583029437333652","name":"Huntsilencer","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9b69d6b5db7ba7ec92be9ac8c5c5705c","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3583029437333652","authorIdStr":"3583029437333652"},"htmlText":"Up","listText":"Up","text":"Up","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9090648107","repostId":1142983045,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":9090658486,"gmtCreate":1643173883773,"gmtModify":1676533781907,"author":{"id":"3564197930660816","authorId":"3564197930660816","name":"carrotman","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9b29e1032c7343cf14e78c210f93267f","vip":1,"crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3564197930660816","authorIdStr":"3564197930660816"},"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9090658486","repostId":1142983045,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":9090651183,"gmtCreate":1643173783641,"gmtModify":1676533781898,"author":{"id":"3582617881962608","authorId":"3582617881962608","name":"Ahsiang","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/310f96e7696af85ae33ece774a483d15","vip":1,"crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3582617881962608","authorIdStr":"3582617881962608"},"htmlText":"Like
