Amazon

Working at Amazon AWS was a great and challenging experience. It pushed me beyond my boundaries to work as hard as possible. I learned a lot and loved the leadership I witnessed at AWS, great teammates, and managers.

I asked my manager if I could take a break for half of the day, as I was burnt out. He said, "Feel free to take the entire week off."

My team and managers genuinely appreciate freedom and flexibility. They don't micromanage and are awesome. A very supportive and empathic team.

Amazon AWS could have its tech stack and technologies more set up and put together to provide a smoother experience for onboarding software engineers. It gets tricky and confusing with so many accounts, tools, apps, etc.

It took me a few months to get a handle on how to access certain resources, as there was a big learning curve.

Please help improve and simplify the technologies being used. It gets really confusing after having dozens of them.
