"I have worked for Amazon Fulfillment since October of 2012. I believe they have a great core of values including those concerning customer orientation and leadership. However, I feel as though management can be vastly improved. I do not feel I am supported by my immediate management. Compensation is rather low for the responsibilities and duties required for my position. I do enjoy working for Amazon but I do not see myself building a strong career within the Fulfillment Center."

"Amazon offers a competitive starting salary for Warehouse Associates, with opportunities for growth and development. The overall experience as an employee is positive, but the job can be physically demanding. The overall rating for this job would be 3.5 out of 5 stars."

"As an Area Manager at Amazon, I have found the job to be very challenging but also very rewarding. The company provides a competitive salary and excellent benefits. The work environment is very fast-paced, and there is always something new to learn. Overall, I would recommend Amazon to anyone looking for a job in the e-commerce sector."

"I've been with Amazon since 2019. There are a lot of opportunities to get promoted but you definitely have to network to get there. Take advantage of the benefits they offer as they can be extremely beneficial."

Product Manager

"I've been at Amazon for four years. I think Amazon is a great place to start a career and learning how a business is run in a fast paced high pressure environment. Some of the brightest minds, scientists, engineers, and managers work on Alexa. However, work-life balance and total compensation is notably on the lower end compared to other top tier tech companies. While Amazon is certainly "Customer Obsessed", I don't think that it has done enough yet to "Strive to be Earth’s Best Employer.""

"I worked in Amazon for 2 and a half years, challenged at every corner with rapid developing functions and problems to solve. It was 2.5 years of high-caliber, high-pressure, and rapid stress, but it left me with invaluable skills that I could not find enough words to appreciate it sufficiently."

"I’ve worked at Amazon for 3 years now and I love it except for the fact that it’s very stagnant. Moving up in the company is something that’s awarded to those who have a relationship outside of work instead of performance-based."
