Great place to learn, hard place to work
Great place to learn, hard place to work
As an engineer, if you put the work in, you will learn a lot really fast and grow quickly. Having Amazon on your resume also opens many doors.
When they say "Deliver Results," they mean it. It's good to deliver, but have an off week, or even a day, and miss a possibly already unrealistic deadline by a small amount, and you will be hearing about it. Sometimes it feels like they expect engineers to be robots, not people with everyday lives and stresses, and that you have to be able to crank it out every day.
Engineers are human beings, not robots. If you look at the overall yearly performance of an engineer, and their reviews are 80% positive, and their work was generally delivered well with high standards 80% of the time, that's a good engineer.
Engineering is hard work. Stop holding people back from promotions or penalizing them because they didn't do it 100% of the time.
