Svantaggi
-When I left Amazon after more than six years, 89% of the company’s global workforce (out of approximately 1.5 million employees) had been hired after me. This fact speaks volumes about the workplace environment. To put it into perspective, the average tenure for office employees at Amazon (worldwide) is only 1.5 years. -The only goal from the company is to squeeze you like a lemon asap and then get rid off you. -Extremely toxic culture. -Management composed of incompetent clowns (especially who were hired during pandemy). -There was no real work-life balance. Theoretically, the working hours were 8, but I never worked less than 10. -Lack of opportunities to achieve real and recognized certifications. -Unfair and ridicolous wages and bonuses. -No career improvements and unfair and tedious promotions process. -A deeply political and ambiguous environment. -Lots of greenwashing and hypocrisy.
