Starbucks employees have alleged that the company is not ready to listen to them. Similarly, Amazon employees are also demanding better working environment and facilities from the company. This strike is proving to be a big setback for both the companies, as their work is getting affected by it.
Is there a Trump connection?
Amidst the strike, some reports have surfaced, in which it is being said that former President Donald Trump may have an indirect connection in this whole matter. Trump had taken many such decisions during his tenure, which were not in favor of the employees. Apart from this, Trump’s statements have often promoted big corporates, making small employees feel insecure. Although these claims have not been confirmed, Trump’s name is in discussion on social media.
