How's the Amazon Alexa Devices Bay Area teams?

Jun 10, 2021 5 Comments

I'm considering joining the Amazon Alexa (ADDT) team in Bay Area. Upon speaking to a sr. manager there, the work seems good. I am mainly looking for technical growth as an SDE to switch from a chill-but-complacent work atmosphere.

But blind is full of negative reviews about Amazon Alexa while some folks say it depends on the team. Could anyone shed light on this team in terms of WLB, technical growth, politics, stress, hire-for-pip possibility?

    I'm in the same dilemma with a SDE2 offer from Amazon.

    What I'm going to do is to go in with he intention to learn and not worry. Worse thing that happens is I get a new job

      Yeah unfortunately new grads are just thrown into a random place, can’t really speak to ur manager until you are just about to start.
