Hi Amazon managers, I recently joined Amazon and realized that the team is not the best for me, can I start applying for other teams internally right after I join Amazon? Would my current manager knows it if I start applying? Or he will only be notified after the other team wants to hire me? Thanks in advance.
Man, Amazon doesn’t seem like a great place to work .
Man, I m already here. Haha. And I mean every company has pros and cons, it only matters if I can find the right team, right? Right now I m looking for a right team for me without gaining enemies.
Go to Alexa, thank me later.
Rule 1: If your manager keeps you on dev list less than 3 months after you join, fight for it. Go to HR. Because that is usually ramp up time and managers would not have enough information to put you in dev list just to block your transfer. There are some managers who does it, but if you are strong enough, go to skip and complain. I am in the same shoes, trying to switch teams and joined recently.
Thank you for the suggestions. Did you apply to the job through job system? Did your manager know you were looking from the very beginning? Is it hard for employees to get a promotion by switching teams?
I don’t know if my manager knows it or not. I have talked to HMs and got an offer from one team. I like the work and HM. I am about to hit the apply button and have conversation with my current manager. I hope he doesn’t block my transfer. I’ve been here for few weeks, so I would be genuine with my HM and hit apply immediately.
Anybody suggesting Alexa is trolling hard. Don't listen!
Why is that?
What about AWS?
How is Amazon ad?

I’m in the same boat. Did you switch?

Worried that our top performer is an attrition risk. How do managers handle this?

I’m Sooo Happy about Biden signing TikTok ban bill today!!
The people who did my NEO were advertising for their team when I joined Amazon, lol. Your manager will be notified the moment you click apply. Look at the careers page, get coffee with hiring manager, do an internal loop, get offer, tell manager in meeting and click apply at the same time.
But it can't guarantee my manager wont know it right? Since the other hiring manager might tell him about it if they know each other... Or is there any policy that managers can't disclose the information until they want to accept this candidate from another team?
I m kinda scared... Not sure if I should do this...
