> For instance, the shelved/dry goods sections of Fresh warehouses are notorious for being a trainwreck, with items sort of strewn in the general area of where the inventory/pick list says they should be, rather than being neatly arranged. If an employee on picker duty stands around browsing a shelf too long to find the item they're supposed to grab (but can't find it, because it's been shuffled several feet down the shelf)...the cameras monitoring generates an automated warning that goes to your management. Mark the item as out of stock / missing from inventory instead? Get a warning when someone else finds it and scans it later that day, or when inventory is next reconciled. It's a no-win situation.
I would like to see any evidence you have to support any of those issues, because having visited an Amazon fulfilment center myself, I can guarantee you that the problems with picking items you mention literally cannot happen.
