Best mass market compact car?
I'm in yahoo right now. Everyone jumping ship with the sale to private equity and things are going from bad to worse. Need to find a new job. Already flunked few interviews. Have some phone screens lined up in some companies but getting so many different requests from Amazon recruiters and managers themselves through LinkedIn. From almost every single org. After reading from blind, I always thought I won't join Amazon. But I desperately need to switch and now I'm considering it. I know it varies team to team but which orgs are kind of better with respect to pip culture and wlb? TC 195k YOE 3 #amazon
Honestly there are more bad than good (probably by a lot). It’s hard to find useful information from the outside. I would suggest just joining and seeing how it is first. Try to make acquaintances in different orgs and see if their team’s have openings (and obviously that they think it’s a good idea for you to join) and move if your team is bad.
Orgs are too broad Teams are where the good n bad lie. Managers more narrower. Wish there was a rating system for managers like how we rate professors
Why specifically Amazon? There are other places that might be a better fit. Amazon is sink or swim, broadly speaking
Not able to get many calls.. Amazon recruiters and managers already literally swarming me.
Swarming for a reason dude. Because no one in their right mind would work there

What a joker…
Hi OP. Can you refer me for an internship at Yahoo?
It’s always darkest before the dawn my brother/sister, stay the course I think brighter days are ahead here
Hmm but with so many leaving esp in my team and org, it is draining and literally got 0 motivation to work now.
Yeah that is tough but hopefully we’ll know the go forward strategy as new leadership takes over which might show you which orgs to transfer to without leaving the company
