About the position

As an Amazon Sortation Center Warehouse Associate, you will be an integral part of a dedicated team responsible for the initial phase of the delivery process.

The temperature in the warehouse can vary, and you will be expected to dress comfortably while adhering to safety guidelines, including wearing closed-toe shoes and, in some cases, protective footwear. Amazon also offers a $110 Zappos gift code to help you purchase appropriate shoes for your first day. Working at an Amazon Sortation Center means being part of a supportive team in a state-of-the-art facility. The company values inclusivity and offers various DEI programs and affinity groups. You will have opportunities to learn new skills, including the use of advanced technology and robotics, and benefit from a range of career advancement programs, including free training and tuition support options.
