Great Training, Horrible Managers

Pros

The only thing I love about Amazon is they have amazing free training courses for employees. There are tons of learning resources and many technical broadcast videos. It's a great learning experience for me.

Cons

Horrible micromanagement. I have been with 2 teams, and all managers are extremely bad. I've been in the tech industry with many years of experience, and I never had any bad experiences with managers until I joined Amazon. This is 100% true.

Advice to Management

Treat employees with respect. They are all professionals and adults. If you don't have people skills, you will never become a great leader.
