Will Amazon chill with PIP especially now when they are having trouble even finding candidates?
It's almost everyday now I'm getting another Amazon/AWS recruiter email asking me to apply, and when I see an Amazon posting on LinkedIn, they are barely getting any applicants. Disney is getting waaay more applications even at senior level and their TC is 🥜 compared to Amazon's. Amazon not only sponsors almost every tech related job fair in the US, they are also sponsoring every major bootcamp at least in NYC just to get more candidates. Maybe a wakeup call?
Would love to work there especially considering the projects they are working on like cloud gaming, but I ain't dealing with constant PIP fear, 50-70 work week, stressfull oncall with only 2 month ramp up, and merciless managers. Fuck that I'll keep my 🥜 AND I won't have to beat my wife.
TC: 160k
Level: mid

Amazon of course can't rely on humans as it's a vulnerability
Also if you’re not on visa Amazon isn’t that bad. I’m not on visa and I’m just chilling. If I get fired I’ll just take a couple months off and go get a new job
What if I don't want any bad lol?
But yeah def see what you mean. Still kinda concerning when more people DO actually want to work there but are scared off because of company culture. It's either they need a better PR team, or they chill with PIP policy.
I don’t see them ever getting rid of the policy. They’ve proven they’d rather just throw more money at people than get rid of it. Which is perfectly fine 🤷♂️
Does suck for existing employees though
