Challenging but politically slow
Challenging but politically slow
Amazon has become a really big enterprise. The technical challenges that come with that, and the scale, are unique and unlike any other tech enterprise.
However, the way things are done is very stressful and political, making the entire place very difficult to navigate and survive in. It's a constant fight-or-flight mode.

First was an exam of problem-solving with 2 questions. Then 4 interviews over 2 days, or all in 1 day after the exam passed, but I didn't join them; I just did the exam.
