How much PTO we get at Amazon when we start working we a SDE? How much PTO we can borrow in our 1st year?
I’ve heard that amazon PTO is 2 weeks for the first year and 3 weeks for every year afterwards. Is that the same for every level? Does amazon have any “personal holidays” to supplement the vacation time? Also how is vacation time accrued?

I've accepted an offer to go to AWS. Without getting into too much detail on the pros and cons, the one con is that Amazon's overall Holiday+Vacation package is terrible. Basically Amazon's is 20 days less than what I get at Deloitte in Year 1 and only goes up by a week in Year 2! Though the TC is m...Read more
Is Amazons pto pretty flexible? So if you have X amount of days are they pretty rigid in the sense “you can only take this many days” or is it flexible like “so long as you’re getting your work done you’d be able to take more time off”?

Joining amz soon. I'm used to big PTO balance (though never used it much, mostly just a Friday off here and there). Starting at amz I'll only get 10 in first year. Just wondering how to deal if any family urgency and stuf.. does Amazon allow negative pto? Tc 250k
Hi, I’m about to leave amazon for google. I have 20 days of pto at amazon and want to cash them out. However, i have heard that you can take them as actual pto and then not pay the taxes as if they where a bonus.

I’ve been at Amazon for a year. Amazon has 15 days vacation + 6 personal days = 21 days total for the second year. I got an offer from Microsoft with 15 days vacation + 2 personal days = 17 days total. Microsoft PTO looking kinda bad? Microsoft just has 5 extra sick days over Amazon. If I accept ...Read more

(ie worked late, weekends some days, take more than limit) Is this realistic? Do most people take the full amount...Read more
