Primary Industry
From an online bookstore to one of the world’s largest e-commerce platforms, Amazon has emerged as the top player in the industry since its inception in 1994. Amazon has built an extensive online marketplace across continents, empowering its customers with a catalog encompassing products from A-Z. Amazon strives to be the world’s most customer-centric company, a purpose that has powered multiple breakthroughs in our delivery, supply chain, and customer support services. In the pursuit of operational efficiency, tech innovations have become the cornerstone of the organization. This has led to the pioneering of new services, most notably within the entertainment, publishing, finance, IT, cloud computing, AI, and Machine Learning industries.

At the heart of our services and innovations lies our exceptional talent network, which works on behalf of our customers. Customer obsession, passion for innovation, enhancing operational efficiency, and long-term thinking are the values guiding our workforce. Employees have the space to experiment, even if it means encountering failures. This idea ties back to our “Day 1” mentality, where employees are encouraged to ideate like entrepreneurs and renew their efforts the next day with their learnings. Employees have routes to upskill and reinvent themselves through various educational and leadership programs offered by Amazon. These programs are designed to enable them with the know-how to engineer solutions with real-world impact.

From its global footprint to its local presence in India, Amazon's operations span continents.

Vision: You'll also hear us say that at Amazon, it's always "Day 1."​ What do we mean? That our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon's very first day - to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and focus on delighting our customers.
