Assuming that there is one thing Amazon is famous for, it's making life tough for its workers. An ever-increasing number of employees are sharing their grievances about the inhumane conditions of work, rebuffed amounts, and the unbelievable conduct that the executives display.

This time around, the organization chose to lure new employees with important signing benefits, only to discover that it's simply one more false promise. A Redditor by the name of FlabertoDimmadome made a post on the Anti Work subreddit page about how their brother was recently fired, only a day before he was to receive his $3000 recruiting bonus.

You can imagine being a part-time worker and then discovering that the HR department deceived you and hired you on an "as-needed" basis. Or imagine being guaranteed a permanent position only to find out that your boss never planned to proceed with it.

The post went viral quickly by hitting a nerve with so many employees who began sharing their own encounters. We went ahead to gather a few enlightening and alarming stories where individuals shed light on the toxic practices carried out by the organizations they worked for.

So scroll down to see what they are actually about because some might actually be relatable to your workplace.

And, as evidenced by the post thread, signing rewards can sometimes look great only on paper, because organizations can devise devious schemes to make their employees' lives more difficult.
