SAN FRANCISCO: Amazon.com said it would spend $500 million on one-time bonuses to its front-line employees and partners working through the coronavirus crisis.

Dave Clark, SVP Operations, sent the note to frontline employees and partners – those who have been preparing orders in one of the fulfillment centers, delivering orders to customer homes or helping customers in a store.
“Our front-line operations teams have been on an incredible journey over the last few months, and we want to show our appreciation with a special one-time ‘Thank You bonus’ totaling over $500 million.
