Amazon Teams for New Grad

What should you do to stay on top things to match with a good team (work life balance as top priority) at Amazon? What are the telltale signs or red flags? Heard that your experience at Amazon is directly related to your team and manager. Seattle, SDE I (new grad)

Spend extra time interviewing with the team members and the hiring manager, asking them about the team. * How many high severity issues normally crop up? * If there is an on-call rotation, how is it handled? How many times was the on-call called in within the last few weeks or months? * How many L5s and L6s are on the team? * How long have others been on the team? Red flag if everyone is newer or evidence that anyone who is capable of transferring does so. * How long has the manager been with the team? * What are the manager's processes and thoughts on promotions? Will they actively help you?
