I've accepted an offer to go to AWS. Without getting into too much detail on the pros and cons, the one con is that Amazon's overall Holiday+Vacation package is terrible. Basically Amazon's is 20 days less than what I get at Deloitte in Year 1 and only goes up by a week in Year 2! Though the TC is much better I'm stressing the loss of PTO and any real extended vacations I can take. How do Amazonians do this? #vacation #pto #amazonaws #deloitte Old TC 182k New TC 301k
This is the way

Wait until you learn about how long you will be working
Yeah I forget about taking PTOs lol
It's called a pip factory for no reason
Lots of Amazon managers allow their reports to take additional time off without logging it anywhere. But then you gotta be a very gud boi in your manager’s eyes, which is another, pretty terrible thing.
This is what my hiring manager basically said as well. Not a very honest time reporting policy but ok.
Yep, this is bs and at the end of the day this can and will be used against you and/or your manager.
Wait till you join MSFt we have 3 weeks until you spend 6 years here. Worse than Amazon from 2nd year onwards. I regret joining just for this.
Do they at least allow y'all to work remotely? Does the vacation limits change based in levels?
Depends on the org. Vacation is same for everyone. You will get a one time sabbatical if you are over certain level and have 10 yoe with company. Not sure but something like that. My manager is on one.
You are getting 301 k !
I don’t get this, explain?
He is saying that ng you are getting now 301K TC. Be happy.
My team allows me to pto without reporting as long as I report from time to time, implicit and never discussed with managers but my last teams were like this as well. Ymmv

What did you get in Deloitte and what do you get in amazon?
Deloitte: 28 days PTO / year, 15 Holidays. Amazon: 16 days PTO in 1st year, 7 Holidays.
28 days + 15 holidays is pretty solid.
