Survivor In Chaotic Darwinism
Survivor In Chaotic Darwinism
Challenging in a 'soft skill' way: you learn how to survive and be an 'investigator' in an ambiguous setting. If you are lucky, you might actually bump into a manager who knows the value of individual contributions and can 'get the most out of you' by making you as happy as he/she could.
-
Darwinian setting: Although the company sells you the "we're together" lie, it's obvious from the first year's salary review that you are a single gear in Amazon's gearbox, and they intend to keep it that way.
-
Corporate lies: Although they like to "hint" that they don't do that, Amazon is full of deceit and secrecy, and even misdirection from time to time.
-
Chaos: Amazon has the motto of "don't manage the chaos," and this is very taxing on you as an individual contributor.
Stop this idiotic 'don't manage the chaos.' You are wasting so much during these processes. If you could use that 'potential' correctly, you'd be 5x bigger than you are right now.

The overall process was very confusing. They did not look further into skills if you didn’t do your absolute best on the technical interview. There was also not enough time given for the tech interview.
