California eclipses Washington as Amazon's biggest state for jobs, with 153k employees and counting - GeekWire

 Panzer stopped in at GeekWire today. While digging in the posts, our inquisitive kitty found one about Amazon.

 

Maybe a new headquarters in California?

According to the post by Todd Bishop,  while Amazon's employment figures grew in Washington state, California's employment figures is growing even more significantly. The post attributes the increase to the larger number of inhabitants and shoppers in California. Employee numbers are also increasing in other states. Amazon's employment figures increase frequently, so the figures in the post are most likely already inaccurate. Included in the post are charts and graphs of Amazon's employment figures in different U.S. states and globally.

 

Panzer says, "Hmm ... The post compares Amazon's employee figures with Walmart's. Walmart is still larger."

 

Note: This is a long post. Bring a thermos of cocoa and six muffins for today's reading selection.
