"Work satisfaction greatly depends on what team you end up in and what management structure is controlling it. If your team is collaborating with staff in India, you'll be expected to attend odd hour phone meetings. Altogether not very much emphasis is put on work-life balance. On the other hand, it can be great career maker to work and have worked for this company. People from all over the world come to work for Amazon, and it's fun to meet them in the common kitchen areas."

"I am part of Amazon Business - Pricing Group; handling various pricing initiatives. Recently, I delivered one of the biggest and most complex Amazon Business Pricing programs named "Volume Aware Pricing". I worked close to 25 internal & external teams and took this program from start to finish line & launched it in 7 regions (US, IT, FR, DE, ES, UK, JP). I got the chance of working on a very critical, complex and high visible program."

"I've worked here twice. It's an intense environment, but gives you a lot of ownership of your projects. My main complaint would be that you are treated like a number, I saw far too many people lose their jobs without advance notice as soon as the company decides to cut costs."
