Hard work, good pay - Datacenter Technician Amazon Web Services Employee Review

Pros

Everything is team/manager dependent so you are not necessarily going to get the Amazon experience that people complain about and fear, although some bs still trickles down. This is even more so with SDEs from what I hear. For me I have a great team that's collaborative, I'm learning a lot, and Amazon looks great on my resume. Moving up or laterally within Amazon is definitely possible, even moving to a SDE.

Cons

Some managers suck, higher level non-managers face PIPs as a constant threat. Many positions require on call.

Pros

Great team when you have a manager and full team that works well and collaborates well. Stock is great. And you know when youre doing well, the pay increase is roughly the same as everyone else.

Cons

Low perks compared to other FAANG companies and most teams have high turn over

Pros

Remote allowed at the time; Professional Services org had great mid-tier leadership that made work rewarding.

Cons

Higher level leadership absolutely terrible; working at AWS you'll always be on the chopping block due to factors completely out of your control. Not even partially out of your control, but completely out of even your organization's control.
