Cool Projects, Bad Promotions
Bleeding-edge technology and projects.
Switching teams is encouraged.
Hard problems to solve.
Management doesn't have a clue about quality engineers. They promote people who they are buddy-buddy with, even if they write unmaintainable/unscalable code. They also give out the big projects based on this flawed criteria. No wonder the average tenure there is about 2 years.
Pay more attention to your engineers, promote those who deserve it, and give projects to those who deserve it.

Amazon Interview Questions
Amazon Interview Experiences
Software Engineer
It was a very hard interview, and the interviewer was very bad. I discussed the approach and asked for his input. He diverted me to a wrong approach, and it wasn't possible to arrive at the correct solution from that path. This was for Amazon Robotic

First, I had a recruiter call. Then, I had an online assessment. Next, a phone screen round. For the final round/one-day event: * Hiring Manager Interview * Two LeetCode-style interviews * One behavioral-style interview
Software Engineer
I had a phone screen and then a final virtual interview process, which consisted of three rounds on the same day. All the interviews had LPs + coding (except for one, which had LLD).
