I have been wondering the same thing. How would that affect employees though? For instance, employee movement within Amazon is straightforward today, but will that still be the case if Amazon went the Alphabet way?
- rifung 9y agoEmployee movement between companies in Alphabet is not really different than movement within Google. I would consider movement within Amazon to be more difficult than movement within Alphabet as you have to interview again for your new team at Amazon, or at least this was the case when I was there. (I work at Google and previously worked at AWS)
- simsla 9y agoDoes the recipient team of an internal transfer at Google not conduct any kind of interview? (I'm not talking about your traditional whiteboard interview, but surely people meet up and make sure that the transfer meets the bar of the new team?) I've noticed that expected skill for a job level depends strongly on location, so trying to sync up with a transfer doesn't feel strange to me.
- rifung 9y agoSorry I should have been more precise. The manager has to approve the transfer so presumably they would talk to you first to make sure you're a good fit and give you more context into the role. So I suppose although it's not called an interview, it basically is one.
