Pros

Audible is well intentioned. HR does believe the kool aid they serve, but the truth is that there's no follow through. They do good things for the community of newark. They will sometimes promote people, but usually it's not people who are actually qualified to hold those positions.

Cons

DEI is a mess, performative, political, and run by white women who are unqualified for their roles, they're just friends C-Suite. It's nepotism central, if you're related to or friendly with upper management, you'll never get a low performance rating. Be prepared to do 10x the amount of work that would normally be expected of you because your output will be constantly compared to amazon teams that are twice the size of your team, but your productivity is expected to be the same.

Pros

Audible is an Amazon company. I think as a whole, this company attracts people who are kind and fun spirited. Some who come from other big tech companies may think us as nerdy or quiet but I think it’s the lack of toxic compatibility that you tend to see at those other companies. I purely enjoy working with my colleagues and the work that I do, which I can hardly say about the other big tech companies I worked at. Free lunch and commuter/parking benefit

Cons

5-day RTO. The headquarter is in Newark, NJ. The commute can be hard for some.
