Bureaucracy, bureaucracy, and some diplomacy
Bureaucracy, bureaucracy, and some diplomacy
Good pay. Good growth opportunity. Great minds to work with.
The environment sucks the energy out of you. You sloth 16 hours a day consistently.
Don't be so stuck up on ETAs for everything. Let engineers do the right thing sometimes. Don't create unnecessary fake urgencies.

Software Manager I
The process was very organized, starting from the HR team to the technical team. The interview was friendly, with follow-up questions. Candidates should be very familiar with Amazon Leadership Principles and how to respond using the STAR method.

HR reached out to me on LinkedIn. I had an online assessment, where no camera or audio was captured. The level of questions was relatively difficult; I could only do one or two questions and did not get a call back.

The interview question was divided into two sections. The first was leadership principles, followed by one DSA question. The DSA question was related to a deque, but could also be solved using binary search.
