I have been at Amazon for about 2 years as a Data engineer. I have changed teams few months back and worked my ass of 12+ hours a day. I have only had 2 mess ups till date. One was during the initial period, when I was new to the team and where no one on the team had any context about the issue. The task was delayed by a week, after seeking guidance from a senior engineer. Another was a recent mess-up(on-call ticket) which I completely owned up to which had been rectified in few minutes. My manager has informed me that I have been pipped based on these 2 issues, which are negligible as compared to my successful deliverables. Never did a stakeholder have an issue. I have not even been hinted about Dev-plan or Pip, suddenly it hits me like torpedo. Honestly, I am gutted! After considering the team dear to me and spending hours sacrificing my personal life, if this is what it is, I really just lost hope and don't know what to do. Should I undergo the Improvement plan or leave the company ? I personally don't feel returning back after all that has happened. Is it the right thing to do ? If yes, incase anyone hiring data Engineers or is open to refer me please let me know. I'm well versed and experienced in: SQL, Python(including exposure to various machine learning libraries) and numerous cloud technologies(Database and Analytics related majorly Ex: EMR, Lambda, various relational Databases and Nosql databases, etc) #data #dataengineer #dataengineerinterview #dataanalytics #engineer #tech
Amazon is just cruel. Sorry.
Here we go! Someone was asking for our daily dose of Amazon PIP stories 😂
I'm glad it made you and hoping it will make them happy :)
Loser LinkedIn. Stop making fun here. Give OP some emotional support

Dm me if you’re looking. I’m at a health startup and hiring for data eng roles.
Definitely! Sent a DM
Not sure if trolling
Don’t give so much to a place that values you so little. Your dedication is very valuable elsewhere.
Thank you :)
👌 ^this
Dm for Fb referral
Definitely!
Can I, too?
Brutal. Sorry this happened to you.
Life will be better soon OP. Amazon is getting less and less talent as these stories continue.
Thank you. I really hope so
I dont know if this helps but just know most things in life are a matter of being in the right place right time, or in this case, wrong place wrong time. This sounds like it isnt a problem with you, just environment. Such is life but you will land somewhere better
Thanks for the warm words : ) Beautifully said!
Start looking.
