Amazon Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"I worked for Amazon AWS during 2013 Summer. It was not a great experience."

"Amazon uses a lot of custom tools to do even the most basic IT job. In that respect if you are a skilled IT person, beware, you will be unchallenged and do very little learning. The pay is competitive if you don't live in California, or near any big cities for IT. Unfortunately that is not the case and the turnover rate in IT shows this, and there appears to be no effort on Amazon's part to correct this issue. They seem content to have a revolving door of technicians."

"I interned there so can't say much about the company, but it's a good place to get some work experience as a UG student."

"There is often mismanagement of all resources. It often feels like there is no improvement or you constantly are redoing the same work."

"The company is good. The actual work sucks. It's still just a basic warehouse... and you can't expect to do anything if you don't have a degree."

"Read the internet about the HR policy before going to this place. If you like Perl, Mason and old stuff that's for you."

"I have worked for Amazon.com for 8+ years and it has been a great place to work."

"I have worked with Amazon.com for about a year now and find it as an exciting place to work."

"After one year spent in the AWS data center environment I can only say positive things about the experience. The management at all levels was helpful and responsive, my co-workers were all knowledgeable and friendly, and the on-the-job perks of an open schedule, light workload and company sponsored dinners put the entire thing over the top. I have heard some other teams in the area do not get the same perks, so other reviews may vary."
