What are the things to keep in mind before transferring teams in Amazon? I've got a smell that our new manager is not capable of handling workload and might force 1-2 folks to be in Dev plan. Can someone pls help what are things to keep in mind and how to initiate conversation to switch internally with new manager? Don't wanna let my current manager know about this. I work in AWS and want to outside AWS (Amazon retail). I already have H1 approved. If I move internally does it mean H1 needs to be transferred again? Would really appreciate quick help before time runs out. Thanks! L4/ 165k
This is why we have dev list, to stop people running from team to team when they get critical feedback.
It works both ways. It's also bad if you get a manager that just wants you gone for no reason. I've had this happen to me (not at AWS) and being "dev listed" while your manager is making false statements about your work is the worst feeling.
I don't think there are any managers who want people "gone for no reason". There's a reason. It might be a good reason, or a bad reason, but managers aren't doing things randomly. That manager believes it's the right decision for some reason.
Change teams if you think you will be put into Dev plan, before mgr puts you in one. Once in Dev plan or PIP you can’t change, until you clear.

Do you really think Amazon is that bad
I’ve been in the same situation in FireTv bro! That didn’t help. After i notified her of my transfer, she purposefully put me on PIP for no valid reason and forced me go. Such a crappy culture at Amazon
Same happened with my teammate. His transfer was blocked and manager started raising fingers for small issues during team meetings and later he was put in PIP.
But why tho. I genuinely don't understand why anyone would be so spiteful. I'd name and shame tbh. Save folks from a manager like that.
