Customer Centric but not Employee Centric
Customer Centric but not Employee Centric
Work with amazing people.
Ability to shape people's shopping habits.
Easy to source internal information and connect with others.
Few managers have good emotional intelligence. The compensation model is unfavorable to employees. It's easier to boomerang and be promoted than stay. Too much time/energy is spent continually recruiting instead of retention.
Invest more in employee retention (comp and benefits). Provide better structure for employee growth and development. Reduce time spent in ops meetings.

The interview process was standard for a FAANG company. I also completed a writing assignment. The recruiter did a good job of setting expectations. The interview followed the leadership principles well.

It was good, but they didn't respond to me for a long time after 14 days. I asked them why, but they didn't respond back.

First round: Hiring manager screening. This covers leadership principles important for the job. Final round: Five interviews with a writing assessment. Each round covers around three leadership principles. All interviews are behavioral.
