Amazon Announces First Fulfillment Center in Alabama, Creating 1,500 Full-Time Jobs - Press Release

Panzer was tootling around in the Catosphere when he heard clapping and cheering outside. Following the jocularity took our kitty pilot to the Amazon press room. With no digging at all he discovered a post about Amazon's new Alabama fulfillment center.

The press release announces Amazon's newest fulfillment center is to be built in Bessemer, Alabama. As with all fulfillment centers employees will fill customer orders. The center will also make use of robotics to help the employees work more efficiently. The fulfillment center will employ 1,500 full-time employees. The employees will immediately be eligible for full company benefits. Benefits will include healthcare, 401k retirement plan, company stock, and maternity and parental leave. There's a link in the post for Amazon's hiring and employment information.

Is there a fulfillment center in all 50 states?

Panzer says, "It looks like Amazon is on a fulfillment center building spree. It seems like this little kitty reads about a new center ever two or three weeks."
