Amazon Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"A huge company present on all continents. They use cutting edge equipment procured mostly from Cisco, Citrix, Juniper. They have a retail website network, a border network and a cloud computing network. They offer a lot of advantages to grow professionally and the pay is relatively amazing. Amazon functions on the base of a a 14 core values that they believe is customer-centric."

"You can learn stuff fast and remain cutting edge."

"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."

"Great company to work with as an independent contractor."

"Good place to work, but hard work."

"The TRMS department at Amazon is not a place I have enjoyed or would recommend working at. There is little room for career advancement and the micromanagement is extreme."

"The people were nice to work with, but I was grossly underpaid for the work I was doing, I found my manager difficult to approach, and because everyone else on my team was as green as I was it was difficult to get help. Lastly I was cut from my contract along with every other contractor on my team with only a weeks warning, which I might add was less than I was required to give them in the case that I wanted to leave."

"Amazon has strong vision for future consumer business. Employees at Amazon are very competitive and may be tough for new mom due to lack of work-life balance. If you are willing to spend many hours, you will be successful."

"Great learning experience."

"I worked for Amazon for 1 year and found the experience challenging physically but not mentally. Although, if I needed a job quickly to fill a gap in employment I would go there again."
