The elephant in the room is that Amazon sucks to work at.
Every ex-Amazon employee I’ve worked out talked about their burnout culture.
They under-compensate compared to their peers and as this article touches on with the discussion about customer focus, their corporate culture is the most draconian and abnormal.
I did an early stage Amazon interview and they basically wanted me to memorize every detail of their company culture and relate every single one of those aspects to a piece of work I did in the past. They wanted me to demonstrate that I had essentially joined their cult before I even had the opportunity to join it!
I have no idea how someone is supposed to honestly complete that interview process without outright lying.
- captain_coffee 1y ago"Amazon sucks to work at" is the conclusion that I have reached about 8 years ago after reading testemonial after testemonial from current or former employees at the company.
