I was making a distinction between "average employee" which can be distorted by having vastly wealthier individuals amongst their number, and "median employee,' which is not. I hope Amazon does have a large cadre of well-paid employees but they're vastly outnumbered by the warehouse workers, delivery staff, etc.

I was responding to someone speculating that because a lot of Amazon stock is presumably held by pensions and other institutional investors, the value of those stocks goes to very average people who are not wealthy (by U.S. standards). I think that even if a lot of Amazon stock is held that way, if you have a job for which you receive a pension or contribute to a retirement fund that's worth a damn, you're not wealthy but you're probably wealthier than the bottom half of Amazon employees.
