Amazon Academic Head salaries in India

Likes

The work culture is positive, and the work-life balance is fine.

Dislikes

...any does not have the scope of role at the next level. Hence, can't promote you. You may get stuck at the same salary for years if you are at earning the maximum at your level. Dedicated and high performing employees lose motivation at work and that spoils the overall experience of the employee.

The pay and perks are good, benefits like insurance could be better.

Dislikes

My vertical’s environment got toxic over a period of three years and nobody wants to do anything about it. Don’t know about the other verticals at Amazon.

Nothing much except package and benefits for employees

Dislikes

Changes in management had made ppl worse, Ppl are hired without the required skill sets. Ppl from Call Center are being hired for HR operations. Employees had good perspective about the company before Covid and but after moving to WFH changed due to hiring unskilled staffs into management and on top work security is very bad.

Good culture and they pay for overtime during peak season

Dislikes

Too much of politics in the company and specially for internal job transfer, they prefer women to occupy the posts as they follow the so called "DEI" policy. And the post that I am in right now, you have to be your managers favourite to grow or from the same community.

The environment. What ever happened everybody is treated in a polite way. There is no ways of shouting with unparliamentary words. Leave policy is good.

Dislikes

No promotion will come.low hike percentage. Simply you do more work but no hike will be given. Office politics is huge it's like a sea. For example let's say if a senior ops posting in not required but there is a manager who is so supporting the senior manager means. They will create a new posting and promote this operation manager to senior operations manager. Literally like giving the posting to next next managers who are in line with the senior ops but this kind of sincearity is not there in other job post. There are multiple leadership principles but nobody will follow lets say there is a leadership principle called have backbone disagree and committed. But it's just in paper. Not in action. No work from home option previously there was working from home for 3day and 2 day office. Worst shift timings, multiple shift changes within a year will happen no stability to showcase your talent. So with this your scorecard will go will go down so obviously your coming hike will also go down. No tenuerity based promotion will be given even there are 6years plus people in the same level and 2years level people becoming manager.There is a huge diversity among skin tone colour. Language diversity. This is resulting in war like situation inside office.
