Very smart people, and lots of room to grow. Powerful infrastructure and internal tools at your disposal. Great benefits.
There is a certain amount of competition within Amazon.
My team ended up in competition with another team, which was an odd dynamic.
The average work week was far over 40 hours. I understand going above and beyond, but working nights and weekends was the norm.
First given a Hackerrank OA. If passed, then moved to final round. 4 rounds, all had behavioral at the beginning and coding for the rest of each round. 1 OOP, 2 Algo/DS, 1 Problem Solving.
Interview in a coding challenge format. I was asked something unexpected, as I was expecting something related to DSA, and I was given a rather extensive problem for an interview.
The interview was a typical Amazon interview; however, the interviewer opted to make it a full coding interview instead of coding plus behavioral questions. He kept asking to solve one coding challenge after another until the time was up.
