It was a large, robust envelope. One end of it was completely open. It looked torn open.
If it is one of those plastic bubble envelopes, remember those are packed and sealed by robots at the fulfillment centers. Older fulfillment centers use the yellow paper mailers with the plastic bubble lining which are hand-packed.
Torn open can be anywhere in the chain. A good carrier or one cya"ing would have done an additional scan as received with visible damage. Of course he could also do that to cover his own thieving.
Most everyone else just scans the barcode and passes it on for the next office to deal with.
Torn could be damaged or theft,slit is almost always theft.

I don't remember exactly what kind of envelope. I think it was vanila or yellow. It did have plastic bubbles inside.

It was torn but the whole end of the envelope was torn. It didn't look like damage. It was evenly torn open.

I used to work for a freight company that handled Amazon stuff when the 'last mile' was going to be handled by the USPS. The stuff would come in on trailers, we would sort it by zip code, palletize it and then truck it to the PO.
Sometimes stuff would get stuck in the conveyor and rip, or fall on the floor and get run over by a forklift or pallet jack, or a fork would get stabbed through a pallet of stuff. Stuff gets damaged sometimes. Maybe somebody swiped what was in there, maybe whatever was in there got skittered across the floor and is laying in a dark and dusty corner of a warehouse (it happens).
If it was left on the doorstep, could have been taken from the porch.
Otherwise, the driver is the most natural suspect because they can scan the object to mark it as delivered and then steal the contents and deliver the envelope.
These days,workers value their paychecks,health benefits more than content of these packages,if there are too many complaints ,the carrier is at risk of losing a good full time job and a paychck which does not bounce and health benefits and pension
