Amazon

Opportunity abounds! Great leadership with an open-door policy. Amazon has given over $30k in donations to my community in the last 3 months. We constantly grow and evolve. Amazon hired me and continues to develop and advance my career goals. Insurance is great. After 13 months, they pay for 90% of college education. We are collective and diverse. We got 3 bonuses this year. This company has heart! There are programs to fly to other cities, all expenses paid, to open new facilities for all employees. My first year, entry-level, 2 weeks paid vacation!

Not necessarily a con, but I had to work hard to get promoted.

I did not miss a day of work all year. There isn't anything bad I can say about where I work.

Amazon gave me a chance, and I do my best for the company.

Covid brought challenges this year. Fortunately, leadership in AWS has an open-door policy. I emailed them, and they gracefully helped a lot of school kids in my city. I'm not one to give advice, but I am grateful for those big hearts and open doors in our network. I was Tier 1. To real leadership, it starts and ends with people. We all matter.
