I was wondering how long you are expected to stay in the same office/team before trying internal transfer. I’m currently a SDE1 in a satellite office and started to wonder what my options would be if I want to live near LA for personal reasons but don’t want to leave the company yet. My team is scattered in a few locations but LA isn’t one of them. If I try this too early, would it hurt my relationship with manager? Also what are your experiences about Amazon LA offices?
Good question, as there are a lot of people who can't bring sound arguments as to why personally staying in Seattle and Bay Area locations are better than LA offices.
Are you based in LA?
