"it's a great place to work"

"Good company to work for and I recommend it to others."

"I have worked for Amazon for over 5 years and I like the idea behind the company, which is its motto: building the earth's most customer-centric company."

"Amazon is a great place to work, and you have the opportunity to showcase your skills. However, the knowledge repository available to self ramp-up is not sufficient considering the aggressive schedule we have at Amazon. Also, managers need to be more receptive to feedback."

"I worked with Amazon since 2012. The work-life balance can be difficult to adjust as the responsibilities are many. What makes it tough to adjust is the lack of willingness among managers to do their part to contribute to the operation. If more managers were held accountable, this issue might be resolved"

"The team I worked on was very startup-like. We were developing a new eCommerce site service. My coworkers were talented and management was good."

"I have been working at Amazon for a couple of months it’s a pretty good job for a warehouse and especially what they pay."

"Discriminatory environment. When you give feedback to your managers they retaliate. Exhausting working hours=. No recognition. Nothing like what's shown or said on social media. The $15/hour promise to employees is just a way to promote the brand. When signing with them, make sure you meticulously read through their benefits package. The 401k is a joke. Everything is done to deter employees from complaining. They have an inside procedure of hearing employees' complaints that is totally biased. If you want to stay there, please avoid challenging your boss. They ask you to sign documents preventing you from talking about the way they mistreat employees. It will take a while for people to understand that, among the top companies in the US, this company operates in such a way that no employee can touch it."

"Fulfilment Companies Need to be Unionized they really do. Waiting for my other job to begin full time I thought heck I have a couple of weeks lets get a job working in amazon fulfilment it will also provide me with a glimpse into the nuts and bolts of that business. What I was about to discover is shocking. First there isn’t anyone working at Amazon Milton fulfillment who isn’t looking for another job, not one person there is happy, not one..as others have said and I have to agree if you are desperate take it for a bit then get out as soon as you can. Long term or oldies have worked a year maybe a year and a half at most and for those who have suffered that long they get this blue vest with AMBASSADOR written on it, in sum it means nothing... the high turnover of workers in the warehouse positions is typical considering they are paid penny’s above minimum wage for physically demanding hard labor work. Luckily there are all kinds of benefits “SAID NO ONE” ; heck Jeff Bezos doesn’t even have free coffee for the staff. You can’t pander to the share holders by treating your workers with common decency and respect. I personally witnessed the Operations Manager spew the BullSh*t of safety and concern for their employees then turn around and bully employees to meet unattainable goals, and take risks to meet those goals. One person was being yelled at for being too slow literally 2 hours and 48 minutes into the first day that they were on their own it was their 4th day working there. Its obvious that a management hiring bias is for Indian ethnicity (in Canada) many of which are new immigrants, as many others have said and I would agree “Great place to work while you look for a job.” Any perks kick in after 2-5yrs (like stocks and matching RRSP) and so far I haven’t met anyone there…. manager or worker who has been there for 2 years...its that bad."

"I've worked for Amazon since 2012. This is the company you need to avoid. They treat people with absolute no respect. Office politics everywhere"

"While compensation is rather good here at Amazon due to an appreciating stock price the workplace culture is especially terrible. This is because the company does not truly value it's employees and due to this the attrition in the first 1-2 years is very high which in turn compounds the difficulty in growing your career with amazon and building equity internally as those with which you would do so often have moved on the another department or more often employer."

"Good company for start. Good company for start."
