I have a quick question, recently I have received two offers from Amazon for SDE 1 position : Alexa privacy team and Amazon AWS Tier 1 team.
Which is the best team to accept the offer considering work life balance?
Neither have good wlb unfortunately. Aws will get you good valuable experience and you will learn a lot and Alexa has a lot of politics and you won’t learn as much IMO
What does Tier 1 team mean?
They owne a Tier 1 service probably
Avoid tier-1 services at all costs. I used to work in AWS at a tier 1 service and it is hell
