The world's largest retailer, which employs 1.5 million people in the United States, has struggled to keep store shelves stocked and fulfill online orders amid panic-buying by shoppers spooked by the outbreak. Workers in distribution centers, which primarily help stock stores, start at $17 to $18 an hour. The starting wage for store workers in most locations remains $11 an hour, with the average wage among full-time hourly workers at $14.26.

Target said last week it would raise its minimum wage by $2 an hour for store and distribution center workers through May 2.

As Amazon orders surge, coronavirus delays deliveries and threatens to put sellers out of businessAmid the rapid spread of coronavirus, as government officials tell people to stay home, Amazon is seeing an unprecedented surge in online orders causing delivery delays and items to go out of stock.

Amazon also faces new challenges as it tries to remove listings for price gouging and false claims about prevention of COVID-19. That's expected. Some businesses will suffer more than others, and while it's a shame, it's better than widespread death.
