IRS Warns Thousands of Taxpayers They Could Face Jail Time
Hi Amazonians, I had a verbal talk about a return opportunity in one of the Alexa teams. I browsed around on LinkedIn and see bunch of Head-of-Engineering folks for different Alexa divisions viz. energy, devices, cameras, automobile etc. Can engineers comment on how these Alexa divisions are doing. Afraid if these are built as part of empire building and shutdown if there are more cuts. At the same time, want to see if these divisions can offer career growth too and not miss out. Please provide your opinion if you are in one of these departments. TC: 220 #amazon #alexa
