Pros

Salary is good for a fresher (25k - 30K per month).

Best IT Assets.

8 Sick Leaves, 8 Casual Leaves, 11 Annual Leaves, 5 Optional Holidays for a year.

If you are in the ST team, you will write Xpath and Regex but no Javascript.

Cons

Non-technical related work. Engineers shouldn't join as an Automation Analyst. At this job, you will find promotions on Amazon competitor websites and will write them on an Excel file. (Data Entry) Repetitive work daily. No skill growth with this job role. No use of any programming language like Javascript, Java, C++, Python, etc. No internal transfer. If you are working on Level 3, you can't switch to Level 4, even if you have the relevant skills and background for the Level 4 job role. They will increase your work on the last two days of the week (double) and triple on holidays. If someone wants to work for money only and can lie about working on Javascript/Python or any other programming language after switching, then please go ahead and apply for this job role. Otherwise, look for a better job which can build real skills.

Advice to Management

When you are hiring someone, you should explain the job role briefly. You should tell the folks that this is data entry work, not software engineering work. Don't tell them that we work on Machine Learning and Data Engineer tasks.

I can afford a pizza by myself; I don't need Amazon to buy that for me. But not career misguiding.

Maybe Amazon in America would be better. I saw the Amazon Development Center India Pvt. Ltd.

Amazon's culture is only in videos and documentation here, not on a practical level. The name of Amazon will stand forever, but none of its employees.
