Good salary, not good work-life balance
Working as an SDE2 at Amazon UK offers a great salary and benefits, along with the chance to work on cutting-edge technology and large-scale systems.
You’ll learn a lot, grow professionally, and collaborate with talented people from around the world. It’s a place where you can build strong technical skills and work on projects that impact millions of users.
On the flip side, the work can be intense, with tight deadlines and long hours that might affect your work-life balance. Amazon’s internal processes can feel rigid at times, and the role expectations can vary depending on the team, which might require some adaptability.
