Amazon's level 2 role has a contract period of 6 months and the conversion to full time employee is based on the performance of the candidate. If a person performs well and meets his targets with accuracy, amazon surely considers that person. I really like the work culture of amazon because amazon not only focuses on the work, rather it even indulges into various aspects such as health, fun activities etc. Company has very nice leave policy. It has 16 annual leaves, 12 casual leaves, 12 optional leaves, 12 sick leaves per annum. If a person wants to work overtime or night shifts, overtime amount is also paid. Overall I would suggest you to choose amazon as your career because it contributes to your professional growth.

Dislikes

Compensation is a bit low for freshers and work pressure is high sometimes.

Great place to learn various processes and gain domain knowledge. Job Security is very good and work culture is very relaxed. Management is also quiet lenient with timelines but is strict about data quality. There are lots of comforts and leniency connected to working here, but likewise you are also expected to uphold certain standards and also work on certain analysis to improve processes. Work-Life balance is pretty good, and you get provided with a lot of amenities. Your growth depends on how many process improvements you have done/ how many projects you have handled. So there is always a chance to work on something new.

Dislikes

Compensation for freshers is quiet low. Also, growth in the initial phases is pretty much stagnant. Since your growth depends on how much improvements you have done in daily processes or how many bottlenecks you have solved, after a while it gets quiet saturated, as there is a limit to issues you can solve, which might affect your growth rate, which is really unfortunate. Also, there is no way to question/challenge your appraisal, as it is pre-decided before it is conveyed to you. You can only put up your grievance with your manager and then that's the end of it.
