Is Alexa a good Amazon team?
I have an offer for them. I've heard a lot of negative things about Amazon culture/WLB in general. Is Alexa better or worse?
Its not a team! Its an org with 100 of teams
Sorry. Is it a good org? I know you couldn't really say since there's so many teams, but on average would you say an Alexa team has a better WLB than an AWS team?
Its one of the org where Amazon is investing a lot! Thus it has Lots of work, lots of chances for growth and hence lots of politics!
Yes, that is if you want to build cool shit
I personally only like to build uncool shit
^^ you’d be surprised of the number of people perfectly content with doing uncool shit
Some Alexa groups are great, some aren’t. If you ask about a specific team or area, you’ll get a better response.
How is music group?
Best Too much traffic they need to handle
How is Alexa automotive group?
How is Alexa Engine or Alexa Data Services?
Please don't fuck it up. I like my Alexa.
Alexa is a little worse on average.
