Following months of increased public scrutiny of Amazon's practices and treatment toward workers, a leaked training video suggests the retail-and-technology giant is prepping managers to intercept pro-union sentiments before they can spread. Gizmodo reported today that a leaked 45-minute training video for Amazon managers takes an "aggressive" stance on quelling interest in organized labor at its facilities. In order to protect its source, Gizmodo did not release the video, but breaks down each section of the video in detail, with screenshots to match. According to Boing Boing, Amazon has accused Gizmodo of "cherry-picking" in its depiction of the video.
