Hello folks, I received offer from amazon for SDE1 (not new grad) hence I have the ability to select teams. Can anyone tell me how are the following teams. Amazon Music (Los Angeles as well as Seattle) Amazon Care (Seattle) Amazon Go(Seattle) Also are there are open source teams at amazon which you would recommend a newbie to join with decent work- life balance and good growth opportunities? I would really appreciate if you have any views about the following teams to share. Thank You YOE: 1 year TC: 120K #amazon
Most teams in Go are pretty decent WLB. There are outliers in every org tho. Music seems to be going nowhere. Care is really new so it’s hard to say. My team is creating a brand new product in Go so wlb has been non-existent for the past several months, but normally it’s not bad.
Cool. Thanks for your review.
Hello - Are you based out of the Go team in Boston Metrowest?
Amazon Go is great if your strengths are ownership and bias for action. Lots of new and cool things going on and nice ppl and leaders. Not as cut throat as other parts of amazon. But you got to do well with ambiguity.
Thanks for your review. Any idea about Amazon music ?
Haven’t heard much about music. Seems pretty boring
Did you join the Care team? How's your experienced? It may help others
