as cbs moneywatch reported last year, if you want to make the low to mid six-figures amazon is quoting, you've got to find 20 to 40 able-bodied, reliable drivers that pass background checks. then you have the huge challenge of managing their schedules and the flow of thousands of packages each day to their end location (in a tight window of time). it might not look as good when your associated hourly rate is calculated. amazon is breaking paradigms everywhere these days. they have competitors of all kinds reeling and are innovating on everything from retail store format to how a hq location is selected.
