What are the best teams at Amazon for a SDE? We’ve all heard about some of the on-call horror stories, but it’d be great to learn about some of the teams that devs enjoy being on. I’ve been considering applying to an AWS team but I’d like to also hear about other options.
Bananas 🍌 Team
F3 - AmazonFresh, PrimeNow, Restaurants
Lol, don't troll
Is Amazon fresh f3 a good place to work ?
My devs enjoy it here (or so they say in the tech survey). PM if interested
Any good teams in the bay area that Amazon folks can vouch for?
Not lab126.
Good teams and bad teams really depends on the director, l7, and l6 manager so "AWS" and "consumer" are too large to say good or bad. They both have awesome teams and they both have horrible teams. See if you can get a copy of the tech survey results for the actual team you want to join. Ask a friend at Amazon to look up the manager and director you would actually report to.
This is solid advice. Also note that AWS and Consumer make up around 50% of the companywide tech survey results, so interpret the companywide results knowing that those two orgs heavily skew them.
By and large, AWS is where it's at
Wtf I heard the opposite
Prime Video, Whole Foods.
I’m an SDE3 in a new team, with an exciting product. We have a small strong team now and are looking to add SDEs at all levels and an SDM. Reach out via PM to get in touch.
Hi! I am Amazon sde2 and looking for internal positions, do you mind sharing your team’s job posting? Would love to chat. Thanks!
