'Gravest problem' | Amazon's 'broken' HR system led to firings and MASSIVE underpayments

A bug in Amazon’s HR systems has led to workers being fired and many missing out on months of pay after applying for leave due to care-giving and medical reasons.

Though the internet retail giant attempted to keep the issue under wraps for the past 18 months, The New York Times has exposed the issue, citing a backlog in the services and a major headache for those tasked with unwrapping the issue.

The underpayment issue was first noticed when employees received pay checks that were much lower than expected.
