Is it cheaper to eat chipotle everyday than buy groceries ?
Hi, I joined Amazon a year back. In a year, I build a end to end service, which is used by one internal team. Since it is a internal team, my work is not that impactful according to my manager. But I have done lots of things to improve code quality within the team. As we don't have any SDE 3 and some reason SDE 2 are not focused on writing "Object Oriented code" and focused on delivery. I believe that's Amazon culture. The technical guidance which I wanted is missing, that's what I feel. If I write the same quality of the code, which I was writing a year ago, then I am not learning anything. Also, I try to look at the other projects, and learn from them. But it is time consuming and I am not sure whether I am using it correctly or not. I was thinking two options. 1. Change the team within Amazon. As within next 12-18 months, there is high possibility of getting promoted. 2. Change the company, and join Google. I would like to know your thoughts on it.
If you have high confidence on interviews and google will hire you, then no reason not to switch ASAP. Otherwise prepare for interviews and learn as much as you can at current position.
Do you only have 1 yoe? If so you will get T3 at Google (equivalent to SDE1). They promotion process with take at least 19months. I would try switching teams, make it to SDE2 then join google at T4.
Currently I have only 1 yoe
If you have google offer, why are you even staying at Amazon
Google would be a better choice overall.
Switch teams!
If you are looking for technical guidance at google, you are going to be disappointed
Why so?
Google. Duh.
Switch teams with in Amazon, I am ex-amazon PM me for suggestions on switching teams
Object oriented code is so 1990
What's 2019 code style?
Spaghetti!
