Amazon

Good salary, brand name, nice office buildings. Helpful people (if they get time).

From the perspective of a front-end developer, Amazon mostly thinks that front-end is low-hanging fruit, which can be handled easily by their "hypes" SDEs. No offense to SDEs, but they suck at writing front-end. So, you can take a hint that a front-end developer can become redundant pretty quickly. If you did, then you are forcefully mutually separated (a sugar-coated term for laid off).

My honest suggestion: It was my dream to be at Amazon, but going there made me realize that it is just a company to which employees should not have any emotions attached. They strive to be the best employer on EARTH. What a joke after recent firings. Not talking about people who got laid off, even those who weren't were scared seeing all the layoffs.

Their 14 or 16 principles are some bogus things that they have to forcefully attach to everything. But the reality is, everyone works to save their as– else, maybe they will get fired. I got a good taste of this company; I do not think it is worth burning out here.

At last, just know that: JOB SECURITY IS A MYTH.

Keep up the good work of firing people, and people will make fun of your "Best employer on Earth" principle. How will you say to new candidates that you care about employees?

Refrain from saying that, as all companies only care about themselves. People will come to your company to work for sure, but it will only be for money and to move to maybe a different part of the world.

You do not disown your family, so please never say "Amazon" and "family" in one sentence.
