Amazon—- run if you have any other option

In terms of the business, I find ads interesting. Changes your perspective once you know how ads are served. Work-wise, very team dependent and not super exciting. Best case, you'll find some interesting projects to keep engaged for a couple of years. Worst case, not sure.. maybe lot of ops and tech debt work, leading to pip. I think I'm in one of the better ones.

Is it easy to change teams within Amazon?

Amazon amzlead Jun 3, 2021

I don't have firsthand experience but as a rule of thumb, I would say it's not easy to change teams anywhere. Maybe relatively easier at Amazon, given that you're not blocked by being on focus/pip.
