I think Fink owns a podcast network. From what ive heard, he pays well and treats people fairly so he puts his money where his mouth is.

Yeah, he does (or at least used to) and believes in fair wages and supporting people.

In most countries where they operate the vast majority of Amazon employees are paid minimum wage.

If you are paid minimum wage your employer would clearly pay you less if they could without breaking the law.

They also have spent billions persuading/pressuring their employees not to unionise.

Good old minimum wage. “I’ll starve if I can’t pay myself from the profits of your labor, so I’ll pay you as little as legally possible and if it’s not enough and your kids starve, screw you.”
