Vantaggi
Good starting pay and overall compensation package, and the work really isn't that difficult. I started as a tier 1, and by the good graces of having a great facilities boss, I got pulled out of production and put into a facilities track where I was able to progress to Level 4 hourly.
Svantaggi
Level 4 hourly is where it stalled. Despite never getting written up in almost 6 years, and despite leading the facilities team in my boss's absence for weeks on end, I was told I didn't have leadership skills to take the next step. That same day, I got suspended, then terminated for a category 1 safety infraction, while doing a job that wasn't mine to do, because no one else was doing it and it needed to be done. That on 2 hours of sleep after getting lambasted by the site leader for something else that wasn't my responsibility, but the responsibility of operations, loss prevention, and the custodial crew. Arrogance and lack of respect are common traits of upper management at Amazon, and especially at LAS2.
