1.5 years in as an L5 SDE and don’t really have anything bad to stay tbh. It’s a good place to work. Curious if the Amazon haters around here actually worked at the company? Hours: 40-50 a week. I can probably reduce this but I’m a perfectionist and also spend lots of time learning outside the sprint work assigned. Pay is good 👍 Remote work friendly People are nice and willing to help out. I noticed none of the “backstabbing” people keep talking about. Learning so many new transferrable skills at work (great place to become an AWS architect). Work is mostly interesting and keeps me engaged. I love how much impact engineers have in business decisions here. Makes me feel like an actual engineer rather than just a code monkey like other places I have worked before. Overall I would recommend Amazon for career growth and solid pay. TC: 230k
Same experience. 20 hours of work per week, L5 190k TC. Boss is flexible, I get vacation any time I want and can leave early, take hours off in the middle of the day for anything
The split personality of boss will only come out during pip season. Until that they project what they want you to see.
Unregretted attrition target is 5-7% in my org, and one of the low performers just left. I feel safe at least for another year
Thank you Amazon HR for reminding us how good Amazon workplace is, like the same way Hitler reminded Germans that Nazis are fighting for a noble cause.

I don’t work at Amazon, but I just copy Amazon’s new projects for creating my own impact at Meta. Works every time.
At which level does this trick work?
I’m an IC5 so it works just within the scope of my project in the org. If I were a level higher, I would need to stay up to date with multiple Amazon projects for broader scope.
