Did they bother talking to any Netflix Shipping Center pickers? I'd imagine that's a significant chunk of employees/temps that they employ.

"After working at Netflix for a while, it starts to get boring and it really brings your emotion down since there's not many interactions with your fellow coworkers, like for me, sometimes I feel really shitty after shipping for about three and a half hours and that's why I try to do many talking, walking during our breaks."
Just a small sample size, but I could imagine that job sucks a pretty big one, especially if your manager/quota-bot is on your ass 24/7.

This is my objection to many "high-tech" companies: in many cases it boils down to grunt work, mindless labor. I don't want to get rich off the backs of poor people doing menial jobs. I think moving humanity forward is going to involve obviating exploitation, and if you're not doing something progressive then you're just rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
"Rah-rah" HR articles are just another form of marketing for the company.
I used to pay attention to the "Canada's Top 100 Employers List" until I noticed McDonald's was on it.
