Amazon

I am being very well paid in the industry. I do work enough to earn it, but...

Getting a promotion in this company is very hard. You have to be a lot about politics, which I'm not. When I say something, it's the truth, whether you like it or not, and that does not fly well over here. Management looks everywhere to please upper management, and projects don't get finished or get delayed a lot because other projects arrive and they need to get done faster in order to please upper management. Nobody has the guts to say that doing so will hurt the current long-term projects. The long-term vision is lacking, to say the least. Money in the short term is very important to the point that it rarely matters to invest now to harvest in two years.

Think on a longer-term basis instead of thinking of this year only.
