Amazon’s Killer Math

According to ZipRecruiter the average employee salary at Amazon as of April 19, 2022 is $48,345 a year, or $930 each week.


According to the news service Reuters, Amazon will pay a full-time employee with health insurance up to $4,000 in travel expenses to have a medical procedure if the procedure cannot be done virtually and is not available to them within 100 miles of their home.


According to Amazon, all full-time employees are eligible for Pregnancy and Parental Leave.

  • For Pregnancy Leave a Child-bearing Unit can get up to 4 weeks of paid leave prior to giving birth and up to 10 weeks paid leave after giving birth. They would collect 60% of their salary during their leave, and could, if they wanted, “ramp up” to working full-time at Amazon during the 8 weeks following the birth of their child.

  • For Parental Leave the non-Child-bearing Unit can receive six weeks of paid leave for the birth or adoption of a child, presumably with full pay.


Let’s do some math:

  • If an Amazon employee is pregnant and wants to get an abortion, but abortion is illegal in their State, Amazon will pay up to $4,000 to fly them to a State where abortion is legal.

  • If an Amazon employee is pregnant and wants their child, Amazon will pay up to 14 weeks of Pregnancy Leave, at 60% of the pregnant person’s salary. For an employee making the average salary of $930 per week, this would be $7,812.


Based on the average salary of an Amazon employee, Amazon saves at least $3,812 by helping a Child-Bearing Unit kill their unborn human fetus: They’ll save even more if the person doesn’t have to travel too far to have their abortion or if the person makes more than the average salary of $930 per week.


Sure looks like Amazon killed that test!
