- Every holiday season, Amazon ships millions of packages to customers all over the world. But how are they able to ship everything so quickly while keeping prices down? We got a look inside one of Amazon's California fulfillment centers to see how it all works.

I love Amazon for online shopping; but upon seeing the warehouse photos just now, and then this video, i am in a SPACE-SHOCK! It's gigantic!!!
Hey, I have an idea: let's make a video to show something and then cover up a huge chunk of it with text telling us about what we're supposed to be looking at.
The only intelligent comment here
let's make amazon in a physical store
I explain:
every store in the world is 1.0
in this store, products almost never change
and the owner chose the products
it is boring
now, there must be a new store 2.0
in this store, products always change
and people choose the products there will be via an app
on the app, there is a huge catalog, people choose the products that will show up in the store
the store is constantly being supplied with the products people choose
basically Santa's work shop 😁
Pretty much

Jeff Bezos......Santa?
Without Santa and Elves
I wish Amazon shipped food and drink items internationally.
Marsilio V.M. now that they've bought whole foods im sure they'll be able to
"Sorry you were out we left your food and drinks with your neighbour"
Which country? I work for Prime Pantry and we have remote options in England, Spain, and Poland.
Why don't you start that
Breast milk
Wouldn't it be amazing if you could watch your own order go through the building.
If you could, you'd complain at least 5 times why your order stopped moving in section 5G.
Besides, I think most of the time it takes to ship your order, it isn't being handled yet because of too high workload.
I think it takes just 40-60 minutes from start to finish to actually send your order to the carrier's pick-up zone.
Angela and watch one of us chunk it like a baseball in the truck?
Yes! Attach small disposable cameras on the inside of your box for an extra $30. Oh wait I’m too broke for that.
And then run away with it 🙃
Yeah man
Started as an online book company lol
It is amazing to see how Amazon works in the fulfillment center. it is amazing.
Robots working with humans, this is the future of business!
I agree
Why aren't the boxes singing? :(

It was just an ad they don’t actually sing are you this stupid you better be a kid
lmao Disney
That black guy looked under pressure 🤯
Its crazy to think this company is becoming the wealthiest company of all time and all they do is let other companies sell their products on their website
It's because they have tax breaks from rotten governments in certain countries like the USA and the UK
I thought Amazon would be a better alternative from buying in regular stores but even with a Prime Membership the items are so overpriced and it takes way too long to get to your house I tried it out and it doesn't work for me I don't like Amazon
Where is that fulfillment center they showed in the video? And it's interesting. Amazon's secret is automation--something few others have on that scale, if any.
Amazon is the best online, shopping packing of good was too good. Amazon products was best. I like Amazon
I agree
Big factory Amazon....is the best team fulfilment....
My daughter documented and implemented the smalls dock expansion at MKE1
Amazing how this video gives the majority of focus to the thousands of robots working in these massive fulfillment centers and hardly a parting view of the human element. I've worked in one of these fulfillment centers a couple years back when our ranks swelled to 6,000 workers during Peak season. It's maddening and unrealistic the pressure they put on all of us in terms of performance and dedication. Then it's equally disheartening to be layed off soon after when the holiday season ends.
In Poland people walk for 10h to pick stuff so no robots here as I heard
I watched this video as part of my studying program of getting the ScPro-Level 1 certification, provided by the CSCMP (Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals).
Fun fact: Kiva is the Finnish word for ’nice’ or ’fun’
the way that woman in the begining put the tape on the package is the most satisfying thing ever
AJLION GAMING i do that for ten hours a day, not that fun
AJLION GAMING did that at frito lay 20 years ago

You mean these? °◡° °◡° °◡°
My building has 5k full time employees and I love it there
For now! 5-10 years will be down to less than 10 people...
I do FBA so thanks for helping my products move smoothly! :)
It is still crazy to me that they have the products just all stored there in bins?
1:00 HE NEVER PLAYED TETRIS OMG

Out of stock,out of stock.................................
This was 7 years ago, imagine what it looks like in 10 years lol
Great deals this year! loving the Kindle Paperwhite and Lumiy Lightblade Lamp PERFECT!
REAL AMAZON IS A LIFE SAVER.
REEL AMAZON IS A POLLUTERS.
Now, Amazon in Italy (my homeland) has been gotten an authorized company about mail service. I can mail a package to a pizza joint from my home. Wow!! 😂
Bought some stuff from Amazon. Paid full price to have it shipped to my door. UPS says they "Tried" to deliver. Bullshit! I was there all day. UPS dumps my stuff at the nearest USPO, (12 miles away), and says, "Go and get it." Amazon owes me some money back for their half-assed shipping. Paid full price shipping-I am owed full service shipping! Beware of on-line retailers who use UPS, like Amazon.
Where's da amazon plane since I bought something from Japan before
Da Amazon truck goes underwater
They have a fleet of jumbo jets. But special facilities near airports handle those.
Yeah right .. i replaced an order from AMAZON LLC (not third party ) and they did not ship it for 10 days , after calling & asking if there was a problem Or it was very difficult the cust. service said that she does not know , so i asked to talk with her supervisor after 20mnts waiting between both of them He said that he can not figure out what or where or when !!! 2 days later i got auto message saying that they ship it with UPS & will have it after 3 days !!!! So Fast !!!!
Just amazing!
I Wish In Our Philippines Would Be Have A Amazon.
Your Country Is Too Poor.
Amazon is a big giant.
they just got a patent for a pool of water with items underwater that release and float up to be boxed and shipped.
But the fun job I had at another factory before was driving around the factory and storage room loading and unloading trucks. Make robots for dull jobs instead.
So much tons and tons and tons of plastics, thermocoal wastes will be dumped into our land and water?
Why is it called shipping even if i order near to the warehouse 🤔
Amazing! I love distribution!
I agree
Cyber monday and black friday has been beaten by alibabas 11.11. Big time. Alibaba has more parcels in 1 day than amazons black friday and cyber monday combined...
It would be amazing to work at a place like that!
Hah i work in one in Manchester, its alright but the breaks are awful :((
Galloway- oof, Massachusetts 🙌
Trust me ITS NOT, i work there and its so stressful , they time you all the time, if you dont scan an item for 10 min you get in trouble, and they pay you 15 per hour🙄
Also if you a picker every hour you have to pick at least 400 items , and take no more than 9 seconds to grab it from the robot, and take 2 seconds to push the box with items and grab another one so pretty much you’re a slave🥴
It won't be long until that workforce is reduced to 1000 employees, then 500... There will always be some humans but robots can automate many of those tasks.
Hello Sir, I want to do Amazon FBA, I need a warehouse to store the goods
Amazon has patented a product that basically would fit onto the wrists of employees to "make sure that they are moving their hands enough" to stay productive. Can't wait until that comes out and half of their work force walks away.
really?! wheres mine!? none of us in Manchester have that.
we have a computer that calculates our productivity %...and if we are performing really badly like 20 % for example they walk us into a room give us a drink and have a casual chat where they take our feedback and give us tips on how to improve.
@@jaysheriffe6292 It hasn't gone into effect yet, but is patented by Amazon.
www.cnbc.com/2018/02/02/amazon-holds-patents-for-wristbands-that-track-workers.html
lol you are being quite over dramatic here bud. ("Can't wait until that comes out and half of their work force walks away.")
"unclear if Amazon planned to actually manufacture the tracking device and have employees wear it." It just part of amazons routine R&D there is literally a story similar to this like every other year and most of the time they sell on the technology anyway.
the patent is just to cover themselves really...it doesn't mean it becomes 100% mandatory across all warehouses. The only way that happens is if the technology ends up being a big deal and greatly increases efficiency. (like the robots did)
@@jaysheriffe6292 Perhaps you'll find out one day when they fire you for being unproductive? Happens every day. Just because you work there doesn't mean that you know everything that is going on or are valued in the eyes of corporate more than any new person that they could replace you with who would do the job for less.
nah i'll probably just walk away with the rest of the people before hand lol.
But anyway my job security wasn't the point here, i know i will probably get fired if my productivity drops too low that's besides the point.
I'm just saying they already have systems to monitor productivity...like the scan to scan system and idle time monitor, which basically does the same thing as this wristband so unless this greatly increases productivity/ efficiency it'll probably just get scraped/sold like a lot of R&D prototypes do.
Even if a piece of equipment like this does become mandatory you're still being overly dramatic about any repercussions.
Also i didn't claim to know everything that goes on i simply quoted the source you sent me.
Incredible !!!!
indonesia here for you
I shop 98% on Amazon.
I love amazon
Be just HAPPY😊
Magical
Nice
I'm trying to research what in getting myself into, but can't because all of these videos are like 2-3 minutes long :/
Tommy W. if you haven't started yet, it's fine honestly there are so many horror stories about being mistreated and all that but it really is an easy job. Don't be surprised because it is a physically demanding job but after your first 2 weeks you will get used to it. Packing, picking, and stowing all have rate unless you are doing one of the few jobs like water spider or replenishing boxes. Ship doc is the only department that does not have rate but is the most physically demanding, there are also way more jobs in shipdoc that you can do, most people tend to like shipdoc more than any other department because it is less strict and you have more variety in jobs.
John Paul yeah that's where I am, I think. I'm a packer aka "outbound" where after every break I switch between packing boxes or running boxes through a machine that tapes them. First few days really work your legs but I've become a bit used to it now. We're now at having to ship 75,000 boxes, but I am sure they know that won't happen today since we only have 2 diverters pulling the taped and labeled boxes.
Tommy to ANYONE applying to Amazon THAT DOESN'T HAVE A FEAR OF HEIGHTS, I personally recommend you find a job there that involves using something called an "Order Picker" (some call it a Cherry Picker). It's still fairly physically demanding BUT there's MUCH less walking around and even bending your body too much, specifically your back (you can simply raise/lower the machine to a more appropriate height to pick/stow product with ease).
Personally, I prefer the picking department, rather than the stow (specifically VNA stowing) because it's infinitely easier to make rate. VNA Stowing has higher demands AND you have to worry about quality (i.e. bin etiquette, overstuffing, blocking & overhang). As for the forklift/Reach Truck jobs... Not going to knock 'em til I try 'em!
Very much similar with Amazon's warehouse robots, the look, the move...very similar.
I got my from here, fleshlight someone put it in a box and sent it to me.
I WAS MAD COZ FENGTENG TOOK 120 EUROS FROM MY MASTERCARD!!!BUT I ACTAUALLY LOVE AMAZON AND FORBES!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE THE FREEDOM!!!
FENGTENG!!! You betah gimme money!!!!
What a nightmare. And I thought my time at FedEx was bad.
Alot has changed since then
40 years ago, I began making cardboard boxes from scrap, in my Dad's garage. 3 years ago, I sold my company to Amazon for $100 billion. I love America.
Love Amazon!
Amazing!
REALLY COOL!!!
Great Video!
Everyone is happy but the workers...
yh the place needs to fix up and jeff baby won't do anything about it
Fired from this location exactly. Look like rbd5. Anyways I was working in the area where the thumbnail showed. Taking off boxes and putting them in pallets. Mid slow season so there wasn't much to do, anyways two black ladies start throwing a fit because I was stacking in one area... which even IF i was, shouldn't be problem. Anyways. The lady on my side get real mad and I explain how it's not a problem when her friend on the other side comes my way and pushes me for no reason. I get out of there and report it to Hr. A mrs.britney... screw her. She didn't check the cameras and fired me on the spot... I did nothing but do my job.
Incredible Awesome
the future is now.
I love amazon great company .
now holding 7 share of amazon =D hope ill be able to buy more
WoW - Gold Empire how much did you pay for all the shares ?
@@TomTom-gk6wc bought one at 1400 ,1500,1600 and 4 at 1950 =( sadly .. haha im still in the red but i realy think over 10 years amazon could double again
@@wow-goldempire1170 And how much will that be in 10 years
@@Christian-mq4zt 10 years i guess it might be at a minimum price of 6k since stock mostly double each 5 year i put 50000$ into CNR and my shares have done 110% since i bought em, i bought 50 share of master card at 125$ each MA stock now worth 250$, i bought 175 share of Visa at 140$ in january now worth 165$/share i bought 1000 share of canopy at 8.5$ last year sold em at 65$ couple month ago and splited that 65k into Hexo, aurora, and canopy last week i put 5k into mcdonald and 5k into costco both up 5% it is totaly realistic that amazon share would do 200% in 10 year in fact that they are not giving any dividend that compagny is going to grow massivly with drone delivery system
So cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great and interesting, Krung Angkor want to be one of your best setallie location for Indochina station.

Amazing
I know the truth about Amazon
ARBEIT MACHT FREI 😂😂😂

amazing
So the math would be 1,521,676,800 items that Amazon sells per month!
Right
I work in one of Amazon fulfillment center
It's foreign... Not india
Anwar Khan but we have Flipkart
I HATE INDIAN AND INDIA
But in India it's reverse, instead of TV I received a plastic comb,for that refund it take long days after arguing and begging for my money to Amazon authorities, second time also I received wrong product no response from their side
Right
that robotic machines if not used could have give jobs to millions people around the world
if not used would also make all amazons prices probably quadruple in order to pay the wages of all those people needed to maintain the current level of efficiency that amazon has. The robots have made it so us pickers don't have to wander around a huge ware house with a heavy trolley for 10 hours ( instead of us going to the items the items come to us)...They haven't taken my job they have made my job easier and i love them for it.
Wow
I'll the fort worth location blocks handicap spaces for ther employees to park they they have 18 wheeler parking in the do not park zones for fire fighters.
Magic
good documentation ……

Worst handling f Amazon in India....most f the time products got damaged n sellers have to pay double charge...with no value for the product got damaged by Amazon..
Flipkart ad at beginning
So you just casually don't show the typical work environment as has been reported by news agencies and verified by thier workers too, it lead to one its top level executive to resign as well because he couldn't bear what was happening in ground. Just sayin
Show the faces of some of these workers. Maybe you'd see desperation
Good jobs for factory
Beautiful
