They make it very clear during the induction that all staff are under suspicion as potential thieves.

If you drink lots, you're going pass it out more.

Time related targets are healthy, nothing wrong with them but at Amazon people get disciplined for dropping below them too often. No excuses are accepted so if you need to go to the toilet a lot or if you have back pain etc (there are a lot of stairs there especially in the Stowing Tower) it makes no difference.
