Their coverage highlights the complaint filed by Alex Berke on May 2, underscoring the treatment Ms. Hope suffered while at Amazon and how it reflects the treatment other Amazon workers have faced while trying to take leave or receive reasonable accommodations from the company.

Ms. Berke was quoted, in part, stating, “Ms. Hope's complaint seeks a remedy for the harms she suffered, but we are mindful of how Ms. Hope's experiences appears to relate to those of other Amazon employees.”
