Amazon

MNC advantages:

• Can switch teams/relocate
• Decent compensation
• Hybrid mode of work

Poor work-life balance.

Work is clerical in nature rather than cutting edge.

Tech Oversight is prioritized over growth/support.

Extreme variation between teams.

Very high attrition leading to ownership of legacy code.

Micromanagement and distrust between engineers and managers.

Cult-like following of leadership principles, where anything and everything is justified via them.

There should be some company-level principles for employee treatment and experiences.

There's so much variation amongst teams that it's a roulette of bad management for new hires. Amazon is actively repelling new talent due to its reputation. I was warned by colleagues not to join Amazon, and they seem to have been vindicated.

Employees are your customers who buy their compensation/salary by paying their time and labor to the company. Have some "Customer Obsession."
