I recently quit to Amazon... My manager put me on Process Improvement with crazy goals and little time (it seems she wanted me out), so I decided to quit and grab the improved severance. What should I say to recruiters? Your advice will be highly appreciated! #layoff #burnout #interviews #findjob
What kind of goals did she want? And what was the improved severance?
Software deliverables in a very short time frame. Improved severance according to Amazon policies.
I didn’t realize you got severance for quitting
No one else needs to know about your PIP. Act like you were a boss at delivering results and just wanted to try something new.
Tell them ur on break and want to try new things
Cheer up, this is the rejection letter for work that won the Nobel prize this week. Never give up :), also apply for https://www.ycombinator.com
Nobody need to know about your PIP. Act just like you grew tired of Amazon and your manager and want to switch
With Amazon it is not why you left it is how long you lasted. :)
ROFL, that person had an axe to grind.
Welcome to Amazon
I didn’t work for 9 months and no one on the interview panel at my current job even noticed. Recruiters asked about it but didn’t seem that interested in the answer. You should be fine
Thanks!
PIP = "Please leave voluntarily before we fire you." I don't believe that a PIP has the goal of improving performance and remaining employed at Amazon.

First of all kudos. You made a good life decision TBH I've been in worse positions and bounced back stronger than ever.
Thanks for the good vibes. What did you say to recruiters when they asked about your layoff?
