Can you get rejected after team matching at Amazon?

I got an offer from Amazon, but the team they matched me with was total mismatch, and I probably sounded absolutely unimpressed and unexcited when talking to the SDM. Can they tell me to fuck off at this point, or will I get an offer nevertheless?

Amazon now doesn’t have any minimum tenure before switching teams. You can just accept the offer and find another team in the first week itself.

Really? That’s seems like how you’d get a big old red flag attached to your name.

You just have to be able to explain it.

You are not doing yourself any favour by showing your lack of interest to the sdm. Fake the enthusiasm and love for the team, work etc. Or the sdm might think putting you on a pip is the fastest way to get rid of you.you are just bringing the team morale down

Just tell the recruiter where you do want to go and why. Worked for me.

Yeah, the problem is that the role is outside of US (I'm not a US citizen), so I can't pick that much.

Why did you apply then?

Yeah not much you can do then
