Decent pay relative to others. Work-life balance varies on team and manager
Good pay compared to other companies in the area (Canada). Work-life balance is okay, but this will vary depending on the team.
On-call can be a limiting factor when taking time off or weekend travel. Late pages are rare, but they can happen (this varies by team). The compensation model does not favour those who are loyal to the company.
Compensate loyal, well-performing employees better.

Amazon Interview Experiences

Initial Phone Interview. It was a very nice experience, with a polite and gentle interviewer. We had a good talk session. Although I did not get a "yes" at the end, it was good overall. I will try applying to Amazon again.

I eliminated at the end of the last tech interview phase. Overall, it is very long. Coding interviews are not that hard. I solved each of them, but for one, I didn't have time to tell.

The 3-hour exam was very difficult. It had many questions with complex solutions, and it was hard to finish all of them and pass. I ended up failing badly. You need to prepare very well and be fast.
