"I've worked there since 2019. Coworkers are great, management is poor. salary is less than desirable, work conditions are less than stellar, some supervisors are great and some sit around and play on their phones. Overall it's a job, not a career."
"They don't let you choose the schedule for your work"
"Amazon has given me the scope and scale I have been looking for after transition from the military. I had the opportunity to build new things, fail fast, and learn from amazing leaders. I want to continue to grow my career and have loved my time with Amazon. I’d recommend anyone to work there!"
"amazon, is a good company but it's biggest opportunity would be working on giving its employees a better work life balance"
"Amazon is an extremely tough place to work. Their corporate staff seldom get raises over and above their predetermined bump up for their first four years, even if they are a star performer. Be prepared to work very long hours. The environment is extremely competitive and cut throat! The promotions are few and far between and they prefer to hire from outside the company. This makes for a very difficult environment. They believe in sink or swim mentality. Be prepared for 65-90 hour work weeks every week!"
"Due this pandemic situation I was laid off from my previous job on April 2019, thus I have started to work for Amazon Colombia as a Virtual Customer Service Representative since September 2019. Even if this work is not on my field (Civil Engineering) I have learned a lot of leadership skills and how to manage people. It has been a good time working on it, however I would like to keep growing in terms of my profession as an Engineer and looking for new experiences."
"Worked there for several years. Was excited to start at Amazon. Once I got in I started to see things that were concerning. First thing I noticed is every Friday I would get several emails from people saying it was there last day and leaving Amazon. I was told the attrition rate was normal. I said NO not this rate is not normal. Then you start to see how most people are given more and more tasks and no raises. Then if you don't fit in or someone does not like you, you get a big target on you. Maybe even get put on Amazons famous "Pivot Plan" That is so awesome. This is a plan that usually has made up lies. Amazon rotates through employees at a crazy rate. Don't go to Amazon thinking of a career. If you are smart you will go to a company that cares and wants to retain good employees."
"Amazon employs a lot of people, their retention rate is very low. The work is very hard and they have a 50% injury rate."
"I did enjoy working for the company however I am looking for growth opportunities"
"Its great to work there but it depends on the person because it involves night shift"
