I worked at Amazon for 3.5 years and was put on a PIP out of nowhere. Now, my new employer is filing my green card and needs references. Should I include my Amazon manager despite how things ended? Would appreciate any insights. #workvisa #greencard
Only if you want to lose your current offer
It depends on how amicable or ugly your separation with amzn was and if your manager is an ahole or reasonable person
It’s also possible to get the letter directly to you. If you like what your manager wrote, then use it. Else give it back to him 😂
Try reaching out to colleagues in Amazon. You can reach out to manager also, but please make sure what reference is being asked. Make it clear thag it’s not a performance feedback, but just make sure that you have worked on technology stack, and kind of work mentioned for your green card.
