hello Folks I have accepted my offer with amazon( TPM) and have a few weeks before i join . Wanted to get your thoughts around : 1) if PMP certification would ideally help in my day to day job . I see a lot of TPM’s in Amazon PMP certified , so wondering if thats necessary . 2) Given PMP is mostly waterfall , is Amazon functioning in actual Agile’ standards ? Would PMI- ACP be a better option or these certifications dont ideally matter beyond getting a placement? Thoughts ? Comments ? #tpm #amazon #amazontpm #pmp #technicalprogrammanager #amazonbenefits #pmi #googletpm #tpmgoogle
Amazon doesn't give a F about certifications. Only thing that matters is your ability to execute. There isn't much weight put on ceremonies. Source: Was at Amazon for 8 years.
PMP cert is a joke. No one in tech cares.
Wtf I can’t believe there r people who told u to get PMP then I saw it’s from consulting firm lol. Let me tell u the truth from someone who worked at multiples faang: PMP matters. If u put that on ur resume, I will reject you.
Lol is this a reply to my post? Not following “people who told u to get PMP” and what consulting firm are u talking about😂?
The first reply (he deleted) was from one of those Indian consulting companies like wipro
Pmp used to be valueable long time back but not anymore. Every company pretty much following agile.
OP, What was your interview experience, are there any technical rounds. Any advice on resources to prepare. Thx
I am trying to move into a TPM role and pretty all job opportunities for TPM at Amazon ask for a PMP certification. Don't listen to jerks here. Even roles at Microsoft sometimes put that in the job opening. On the other hand if you got the certification done, I would like to know a good prep course.

PMP talking about Agile is putting lipstick on a pig 🤣
