As a result, its labor pool is growing stronger by the day just not to its advantage. Advertisement Today, Amazon workers walked out of DIL3, a Chicago delivery facility. At this point, workers have consistently listed so many hardships worthy of protest that you’re probably familiar, but today’s call was dubbed, “Stop Megacycle!” referring to a 10-to-11 hour overnight shift that workers say Amazon has implemented in several facilities. Leading the protest is a strong corps of organizers, Amazonians United Chicagoland, who refer to themselves as a “solidarity union.” (They’re under the umbrella Amazonians United, which has chapters in Sacramento and New York, as well as an international coalition.)
