Amazon Security Engineer Intern reviews

Fast moving competitive workplace, requires independence, motivation, an ability to learn quickly, and the ability to be vocal about your ideas to be successful. I get the sense employees are always expected to be moving up, so if you're the type of person that wants to punch the clock and put in your 40 hrs, with no desire to grow and advance you may have a difficult time depending on your team culture and management.

Perverse incentives that make people learn to manipulate others or give it up to people who will Super political, even in smaller orgs Culture is very invasive-- so many people drink the koolaid and it's kinda sad Stressful on the mind; many people seem like they have constant anxiety and could 'crack' at any moment No such thing as 'controlled chaos', it's just chaos for employees and then orgs clean up the messes Unless you're fairly senior, you have no control in the org at all; nobody cares about good ideas, they want to do things that 'look good' primarily, and if they really make a difference later, it's fine No stability for decision making; people can criticize you for anything and there's no accountability at higher levels
