In Amazon, I get to work on various techs like AWS, and mostly teams work on full stack projects. So, we get exposure on frontend and backend techs.

Dislikes

The work life balance is very bad, also there is constant pressure from management to complete the tasks, otherwise there is constant fear of losing the job.

In Amazon the culture that we follow is very good and work-life balance is a perfect example for amazon employees.

Dislikes

If its a non tech role then the only drawback of amazon is it pays you less than the market value.

I really enjoyed doing the job. I liked that it was work from home .If I get a chance again, I want to work in Amazon again.I have been working for 4.5 years and never got a Pip Cap.

Dislikes

When I was terminated, my mistake was not pointed out to me, he said that it was my mistake; my manager also did not try to save my job, he himself used to take a lot of leaves in the last 6 months, whereas I never got CAP or PIP and was directly terminated. Whatever happened, I want to return as soon as possible, in March itself.

Dislikes

Everything - There is no work-life balance. Salary paid is very less and working load is of 3 times. Daily in huddles managers threaten employees about layoffs without any reason. Managers have targeting nature. They don't train you enough. If you haven't been at office due to health issues. They start thinking that you are not interested in job. Most importantly when parent had heart attack. They discuss about policies. 1st day I was told not to talk with anyone at workplace. They do micro-micro management. I guess this process managers are worst....Read More

Worst winter, rainy, or summer session issues; management does not care, only focusing on package clearing by the date.

Dislikes

Salaries are not good. They are 10.5k per month. Not increasing salaries for seven to eight years, even for new employees, is unfair. We have discussed salary increases with management, but they are not listening. The minimum acceptable salary is 10,000 per month. If targets are not met, the company will deduct 10 rupees per package. The company owner runs over 20 branches, but management refuses to increase salaries, focusing only on expansion. This is harming employees....Read More
