5 people jus in my friends circle got hired by amazon in past 3 months ! What’s going on ?
How was the interview/offer
What's a CSA?
Amazon hires fast and fires fast. It’s a bootcamp/stepping stone for folks who don’t have a tech company background. And if you’re already in tech, it’s a decent way to get exposure to new businesses and do a lot at scale. People get out in 1-2 years if they can get a better gig. Either way Amazon grinds folks and asks more of you than it gives.
It is hire and fire policy at Amazon. Don’t get blinded by hire numbers look at DevList posts on Blind as well
Every quarter approx 10% loss in the tech workforce. Which means a lot of mass hiring.
Congrats, you have a bunch of friends that couldn't get into FB/G/Albertsons!
Amazon is a stepping stone to FNG. FNG is a stepping stone to Albertsons.
