Leaders Don't Build Trust
Leaders Don't Build Trust
Your team can have spectacular work-life balance. You can work with great people.
All of those pros, they depend so heavily on the team.
But my bigger complaint: despite having a leadership principle of "builds trust," that is precisely the opposite of what Andy Jassy on down to my manager has done. In my 2+ year tenure here, there have been thousands of layoffs, a flip-flop on remote work, and very poor communication throughout. I can't wait to land a new position and get out.
On-call shifts are also the worst. One weekend out of 4 having to keep my laptop close and possibly interrupting fun if there's a page (which seems to only happen on weekends and never is actionable for my team) makes things miserable for the entire family that weekend.
