Amazon CEO Andy Jassy said on Thursday that he believes union representation would not benefit the company's legion of workers.
"It's employees' choice whether or not they want to join a union," Jassy said during an interview with CNBC Squawk Box. "We happen to think they're better off not doing so for a couple of reasons at least."
Jassy said Amazon "empowers" its employees and that a union could negatively impact a worker's relationship with their manager.
"[At Amazon] if they see something they can do better for customers or for themselves, they can go meet in a room, decide how to change it and change it," Jassy said. "That type of empowerment doesn't happen when you have unions. It's much more bureaucratic, it's much slower."
