Amazon Development Centre India "Work Life Balance" Reviews

Likes

Only good thing about Amazon is the compensation they offer.

Dislikes

1. There is no work life balance. You have to work in rotational shifts and week-offs. 2. Favoritism prevails at Amazon, especially in terms of growth. 3. They terminate atleast 7% employees annually which is mandatory as part of the annual performance evaluation cycle. It is completely data based and not situation based. Leadership doesn't remove the hurdles in meeting the goals and later, put all the blame on you. Hence, no job security. 4. Most of the time, you will be working on repeated tasks. Hence, no skill development and work satisfaction....Read More

It's all about the work culture, I find it very employee centric and Amazon has this wonderful culture of giving opportunities to learn and Excel in all the levels irrespective of their position in the company.

Dislikes

It's about the work-life balance and the salary which I find very less compared to the job market and appraisal is not as so expected.

7 yrs at amazon, i have come accross with managers who not only support learning and development but also support with all your ideas. Talking about work life balance, i might get a lot of heat but i have personally drawn a line which none of my stakeholders have crossed yet. They know when to push and when not to. I love it here....Read More

Opportunity to work on a cutting-edge product in the Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning domain. The facilities in the office (including the cafeteria) and the IT infrastructure.

Dislikes

NIL work-life balance as you are forced to be in late-night calls. Team members from the USA have too much attitude and are not ready to accept your meeting requests. They work as per their self-defined list of priorities. Although the job title is TPM here is nothing Technical in the r ole itself. It is very transactional and only involves collaborating with different teams and begging them for inputs and work deliverables....Read More
