Zero inclusion - Senior Solutions Architect Amazon Web Services Employee Review

Pros

The tooling and technology stack is pretty accessible and robust.

Cons

The worst company to work for if you're not a 'cookie cutter' . They have zero respect for anyone with a slightly different racial background or disability. They preach inclusion but practice discrimination hardcore. The only thing the inclusivity training did was teach manager's how to avoid detection. HR does not care . You can have a fully substantiated claim and still get fired by your manager with no appeal. Skip Pip and find somewhere worth working for. WWPS is particularly bad about talent recognition and certain managers are shielded well in their hate bubbles.

Pros

Ambitious projects if you're in the right team. Typically great team-mates. Don't believe the memes, the ppl are not back stabbing jerks but are overall genuinely nice. Not constrained by budgets when building cool things. Tools while sometimes clunky are powerful.

Cons

Schizophrenic lack of focus, entire teams get split, merged and upended multiple times a quarter. Some product managers are disconnected from reality. It didn't use to be the case, the PM-Ts were previously top notch. You're pushed to vibe code everything. Established products with loyal customers are getting neglected. Newer VP level leaders don't seem to know what they are doing. Veteran OG VP level leaders are either leaving in droves or seem stressed or checked out.
