I doubt one would notice most of the time. It doesn't rain here much. It sprinkles for months at a time. We don't carry umbrellas. Most days, looking out the window, its hard to tell if its raining or not. The drops aren't big enough so you have to look at the tops of parked cars or see if any drops are hitting the puddles. But its not like back east where you get thunder and lightening, heavy downpours with hail and the like. Its more like a never ending opening to Bambi - din din din little April showers....but even that would be a heavy rain:)
People seem to be negatively criticising this idea, but I know I would personally prefer to work here than a depressing office block. The natural light alone would make me more productive, and make my mood better. I think it's a great idea.
@@MM-hq2bd I don't think that's related to the office though. I think Amazon is a scummy company too, but regardless of who built the office, it's still a good office.
'Waah I hate company's that drastically change things and need ultra efficency to create a superior product that actually has a chance of doing good in the future'
@@TheFreshSpam you do know they pay next to nothing in tax and actively exploiting its workers right. Amazon bring new innovation to the world sure, but hey we can criticize its flaws too right.
They were losing money for almost 20 years, so tax credit. Similarly to you, if you losing money for small business, you can get tax credit for future years. Also here in Canada, the minimum wage for Amazon employees is 19/hour, that's good(if people's feels exploited they would quit like a normal person) and I know, driving throughout the city and walking to a front door must be life threatening. The reason why Amazons prices is so cheap is because they spend so much more money making it cheap(to remove competition) to a point that sometimes they wont even reach their profitable point.
@@AnimeTopsEntertainment fair point. Apparently you are smarter than the two people above us. Basically we can't over demonize someone and at the same time can't over glorify someone. In the case of Amazon's I think it is prudent to keep both eyes open. John D Rocker feller man had a monopoly of oil industry, he set a strong foundation for oil refining standards. Which benefitted mankind immensly At the same time, he was causing plenty of busniess and workers to go out of work to stamp out competition. How many careers and livilhood have he stamped out? Are we not going to keep a eye out on Amazon just because it provide a great service for us? Remember even Apple exploit their workers in China. But we love IPhone ya?
@@AnimeTopsEntertainment besides.. If Amazon don't make money for so many year why is Jeff Bezos still the richest man in the world? Jeff and Amazon benefitted greatly from America infrastructure. And they pay nothing? Not even a bit? Even when it is profitable?
And in mean time.... I am fighting with my company so they replace my broken chair.... Edit: also, who else here hate the person that ask to change the AC for half of the building every 5 minutes? Edit 2: my chair is still broken :(
Most of those plants would never grow in Seattle. It’s a very complex ecosystem they’ve created. I mean you’re right about it being a space only for amazons employees and the elite, but it’s more complex than not wanting to see homeless people.
so nice they treat their corporate employees well and go out of their way to relieve their stress. I worked in an amazon warehouse, break time was 15 minutes. the place was so big It took me 6 minutes to get to the breakroom and 6 minutes to get back to my work station. thanks for that 3 minute break Amazon
‘Every amazon employee?’ I think every amazon employee are locked inside warehouses packaging boxes on a conveyer belt 24/7. Well done for making a sphere building for hire-ups with laptops sniffing plants.
That’s their own fault, you have total control of where you want to work, nobody’s forcing you to work there. If you hate your job, cut out your liabilities and save up $$$ and change jobs.
They were losing money for almost 20 years, so tax credit. Similarly to you, if you losing money for small business, you can get tax credit for future years
Surprisingly, Amazon doesn’t order any of its products from itself. I’m an Amazon employee and when we get things like new chairs etc they specifically state we can NOT get them from Amazon.com. It has something to do with the taxes etc. So yea Amazon surprisingly buys a LOT of stuff they could be saving money on, from outside businesses.
Joseph Richardson yea and Amazon does taxes differently because they have that special “we make a lot of money” tax rate haha. But in general yea they’d be like buying from themselves but the taxes would be off because buying from yourself at one rate and paying taxes on the same item at a different rate would be way too confusing
I can't wait to visit the Amazon Sphere's ! I love this! Thank you for the inside tour! This is one of my top destinations on my bucket list! I post videos on plant care and the spheres are a dream come true! Absolutely amazing!

@@theeldergil They will lose their jobs, amazon will have even more reason to accelerate automation rollout, and in the meantime will hire more people to replace them. There is little incentive for people to do that, and that's that whether we like it or not.
It really isn't. You cant just hand pick some nice looking plants and call that nature. If this is what replaces the natural world then food chains die and ecosystems collapse.
If futuristic nature means wasting tons of energy and resources in keeping foreign flora alive because it looks cool instead of seeking to not waste resources and keeping endemic flora where it belongs then we're doing something wrong
I do not know how much this architecture helps Amazon's productivity but the company is doing very well. I wish we had more of these spaces all over the world. The sterile and noisy open-office model saves companies money but are horrible. It is frustrating how many companies are still adopting it for short-term cost perspectives only.
This is a great idea, but I can't help but be sickened by how much money they spend on comforting these highly paid people vs. the sweat-shops they operate for fulfillment centers. If you work in the spheres, you've got an indoor forest to help sooth your working nerves, paths to walk, blah blah blah.

@@ntactime_w3488 The question here then is, when you worked at those fulfillment centers what sort of improvements or elements in your work environment was Amazon actively taking steps to make your working environment better? did they put some kind of trail around the fulfillment center? Was there a spa on site, how about a relaxation room? What about some of those sleeping pods that all them coders are always talking about? oh I know... they at least put in a hot tub out back, that way people could at least relax after their long day of work.... Right? there was something at the fulfillment center that helped make the monotony and stress of that job better? I mean did you have an indoor rainforest? The least they could do would be to put some kind of trail around the property of the fulfillment center, that seems to be at least the minimum that they could do to provide some kind of relaxing element for the work environment. Did they at least do that?
Wow! I wished it’s like this at my job! I’m a plant nerd and I want to see nature everyday. I noticed there’s a lot of exotic rare plants that’s hard to find/buy
@@Tullymastully That 1 trillion is achieved and maintained by dodging all the taxes that Amazon would have to pay to governments if they didn't have a ton of legal strategies to get around them. A public school not being able to run it's AC when it needs to is, in some way, a result of the greed of Amazon.
sorry but sorting packages doesn't take a lot of intelligence. as cruel as it is there will always be people without the fortune of smarts. it's a necessary cost so that we can get minds like Nikola Tesla or Carl Sagan, etc.
plus taking endemic flora from its environment and transporting it all the way to Seattle where it doesn't belong instead of... you know... using local flora
Probably more than the ball sac building... They got to make those warehouses compliant for their future fleet of robots to replace the defiant employees
Exactly! They really like to have as wide as possible gap in working conditions. "We care about our employees, unless you do manually labor, can you please pee in a bottle instead of taking a bathroom break that'd be great thaaanks"
Well birth rates continue to fall, so the population is expected to never break 12 billion. Also, it truly seems like vertical farming / factory farming of plants has the potential to provide organic foods for a fraction of the resources, and land usage. It won't come soon, it will probably take 50 - 100 years, but it is believed that we will be able to provide all of the world's food with somewhere between 5-10% of the land we use today. If that is coupled with only the 50% estimated increase in total population, there should be a lot of land that opens up for more parks and forests in the future. Humanity right now is just at an incredibly tough transitory period...think of it as the awkward and painful puberty of humanity.
go educate yourself and get a better job this is just entry-level job, don't expect to earn millions when ur job is to put labels on cartons. I had to work hard 40-50h a week while I was studying, now I can relax and have a better life, work hard and smart than u will earn more.
artmasterpl in general that’s a good answer but it’s important to point out and be compassionate towards people that can’t work 40 hours a week and go to school and do internships for varying reasons like having to take care of a loved one, mental health, or physical health reasons, etc. And even then, at the end of the day, a lot of people work so much harder than others and still aren’t able to live even comfortably.
I've been inside, they're lovely- but never open to the public. So everything about reconnecting the city with nature is more than a little hypocritical. Especially since outside, on the sidewalk, guess what they have? Street trees. I thought that wasn't enough?
RancidMarshmallow I have been in a few times also, it’s a great place but it’s only made for employees. If everyone could come in it would be chaos and would have no point for the employees to have a nice place to relax.
Of course in the warehouse employees wear diapers because they don't get restroom breaks. This would be awesome if it wasn't built on the backs of the poor and taxpayers.
@Ben You must be a supervisor! Almost every news agency in the country has done a story on Amazon and restroom breaks. People even peeing in bottles to avoid getting a strike for going to the restroom!
1) You don't need to be ultra-rich to work at Amazon HQ... 2) This is a workplace. Honestly, if you can make where you work feel good, why wouldn't you?
" _Why did you choose a sphere shape?_ " "Because the sphere is a sHaPe oF NaTuRe LiKe tHe sUn aNd MoOn aNd eVen tHE hUmAn eYe.." What a rubbish answer
That's what a monopoly on E-Commerce buys you. Amazon paid $0 in federal tax. You seem to be forgetting that this country has thousands of different types of taxes, many of which Amazon has no choice but to pay. Gotta love America!

I've been inside, they're lovely- but never open to the public. So everything about reconnecting the city with nature is more than a little hypocritical. Especially since outside, on the sidewalk, guess what they have? Street trees. I thought that wasn't enough?
RancidMarshmallow I have been in a few times also, it’s a great place but it’s only made for employees. If everyone could come in it would be chaos and would have no point for the employees to have a nice place to relax.
Now this is Amazon.
what about the amazon's employee at the warehouse? you give the hellish working environment
Really terrific structures.
Of course in the warehouse employees wear diapers because they don't get restroom breaks. This would be awesome if it wasn't built on the backs of the poor and taxpayers.
@Ben Daniel Because you didn't read it or see it on your favorite news channel? Or perhaps you have a vested intrest?
@Ben You must be a supervisor! Almost every news agency in the country has done a story on Amazon and restroom breaks. People even peeing in bottles to avoid getting a strike for going to the restroom!
built on the poor? LOL They pay more in taxes than any of you and they don't talk anything from tax payers. Get over yourself old low iq ball sack.
@@logic7374 You are either ignorant or evil but I'm not the judge!
How about improving the conditions of your factories?
Now show me where their kitchen and janitorial staff work.
It looks futuristic.
Oh to be ultra rich and not have to deal with common peasants in the city like me.
1) You don't need to be ultra-rich to work at Amazon HQ...
2) This is a workplace. Honestly, if you can make where you work feel good, why wouldn't you?
This is an awesome project worthy of emulation.
You could just work remotely from Medellin, Mexico City, Lima, Bali, etc. :P
Mind blowing🤯!

What a rubbish answer
I wouldn’t say so. A lot of design is inspired by nature.

Why should there be
👏Best 👏comment👏 ever.
Why are you wearing a green tuxedo?
BeCause tHe GraSs and tHe TrEes and tHeAvaCaDos! 😭😂
@@자시엘-l1s Because nature doesn't always do things the best possible way. Copying something just because "durrhurrr it's in nature" is stupid.
good documentation .......
So that's what $0 tax can buy you. Cool
That's what a monopoly on E-Commerce buys you. Amazon paid $0 in federal tax. You seem to be forgetting that this country has thousands of different types of taxes, many of which Amazon has no choice but to pay. Gotta love America!
This building is freaking amazing 😍🤘
wheres the Avocado tree?...
Politics aside, this project is exemplary. The freedom of spatial awareness is immense. As someone who worked in a compact, cinder block surrounded office space with distracting artificial lighting, this approach seems other worldly.
Is this open to the public?
@@drumma_satch You obviously didn't watch the video... They said yes, people are able to visit it... Smh... Don't post things you obviously don't know what you're talking about......
Yes but u need tickets, and it fills up fast
