Amazon's Audible renovated a historic Newark church into office - Business Insider

Audible is headquartered in Newark, New Jersey, where it moved in 2007. It has since become the city's fastest-growing private employer, and its new "Innovation Cathedral" is located about a block away from the headquarters. In the renovation, it preserved historic elements while updating other features, and making additions for workspaces.

Audible also gives a $500 monthly stipend to employees living within Newark city limits, provides Amazon Fire tablets to Newark high school students, and offers those students paid internships. These policies are part of what Katz calls the "responsibility all corporations must take seriously" to invest in their communities.
