Their business model is based on tax avoidance, which is different than tax evasion or dodging. Using legal means to reduce one's taxes is not unethical. If the laws are faulty, it is not Amazon's fault for obeying the laws in the way that is most beneficial to their bottom line.

Any company that treats its staff poorly will not retain staff for long. There are dramatic costs involved in employee turnover, and successful companies do not encourage employee churn. My guess is that Amazon is paying pretty well, and most people will give up a lot of dignity for a big paycheck. Who are you to judge them for their free choice?
