Do you choose your schedule or do they schedule you? Edit: Ooops -- I see now that I pretty much reposted a question from 7 days ago. Management was very kind at least, however it's impossible to reach anyone when you're not there. You would have been bored, and not cared for. I remember people joking about finding ways to "disagree and commit" while still managing to "earn trust." Online. These new folks have had between 2-6 months to ramp up, and almost all of them seem lost. You are moving and multitasking all day. I am a Flex driver and am interested in delivering groceries for an extra income. Principles used as a weapon. Scanning boxes and building pallets is really easy. 2. I've been looking but can't find much. There is no time for architecture, planning, or proper testing.

LA. I always had achieves/solid strength or better ratings, but there was so little transparency to it that I don't have trouble believing that people really do get low ratings or PIPs out of the blue (that said, I rarely saw anybody get PIP'd and fired who didn't deserve it, at least in my org--more on that in the bits about turnover and the hiring bar). I ones emailed them to see if I can work on both or need to be switched and they just said that they are not hiring at the moment (that was almost a year ago). In that case, you choose the orgs you like best, and will then be placed into an org's queue based on some combination of who has openings and what you picked. What tips or advice would you give to someone interviewing at Amazon.com? I am appreciative of the mangers that go out of the way to give me the chance to do well and learn other stations, but that is a very small percentage of them. The intern/college-hire allocation process is a bit more equitable, but not by much.

Bell curving. Micromanaging is what “Dive Deep” is really about. There are flexible shifts that can be chosen online for each week. Otherwise, you go to a group event or a random interview loop and end up in an org-wide hiring queue, where teams with "priority needs" are first in line for staffing. Still not convinced? You like pain, I guess…. They are desperate and will likely give you what you want. Cookies help us deliver our Services. Only bad thing was the terrible environment, 30-50 year olds acted like high school students, even the managers acted funny. There's been a lot of discussion about the challenging work/life balance at Amazon. I remember reading a comment saying some people are too afraid to talk to HR. I always help co-workers when they get in the weeds and close thing down, leaving things clean for the next crew is important to me, but not for most. How flexible are your working hours at Amazon.com?

over my last two attempts at shopping in Amazon fresh, they have been out of at least 90% of my past purchases, and my girlfriend is finding the same thing even though we don't order the same products. Once Covid came they changed my schedule without speaking to me and then when I told him I had to leave 30 mins early each day due to my child's daycare closing 30 mins early for extra cleaning due to Covid I was denied. What region are you working in? Some rules I find annoying. Not anymore. Yesterday I received some spoiled produce, went to get my money back, but instead of getting a refund as usual, I get a message saying "To check the return or refund eligibility of this item, please contact us". The hiring process was very easy, no interview. Ops. Amazon pays a lot. I went to their onsite "group" coding thing and it was basically a bunch of candidates coding in a room stressing about finishing individual mini projects with cold, half-assed lunch mid-way through that you kinda picked at while staring at your screen for 8 hours straight. Decent enough for people that don't have any other choice, Seasonal Warehouse Associate to Part time. Don’t say you didn’t. Those blocks show up in the app just like the logistics blocks do. The chances of being randomly assigned to a full time position on a great team are low (but not impossible). Here's the thing: group interviews and most recruiter-sponsored contacts are mostly just attempts to find bodies to grind. Anyone have any insight? There is free coffee that is accessible everyday. awful benefits, low pay, demerit point system. The "Leadership" people; Awful Management! Here is a top 11 list of what sucks the most about working at Amazon: Micromanagement. Well, kind of like logistics in the old days when they use to offer blocks in the mornings.

No respect for planning. Sr.

Heavy boxes, No schedule flexibility, Short shifts, Short breaks (10 min), Attendance too strict. Like the other poster there, I have done some returns in the past, but far from excessive and ONLY at those times when stuff was legit unusable. They are constantly behind the curve on scaling, their projects are always late, there is nothing documented, there is no architecture (or even respect for having an architecture or design). Yes they were over priced for what you got, but they were so easy to make and very tasty :(, As someone who doesn't know how to cook or takes a long time prepare raw ingredients, I liked it. I didn't think there were any left that aren't merged. Corona virus handled well for the most part.

shitpost.

Hot. Performance reviews are extremely clandestine and political, and appear to have little to nothing to do with peer feedback, what you delivered, or the value of your contributions to the company. Do we go through interviews?

Anytime feedback.

And yes, each team needs to hit the bell curve. As for experienced candidates: the bar was still relatively high there when I left, but I did see recruiters pulling stunts like recycling "borderline" candidates over and over again because they were so desperate for people who were interested and had some shred of a chance that they gave them multiple chances (and many eventually got in this way, because they learned how to game the broken interviews most people ran). Do I have to be home for the delivery? Many people at Amazon have health issues, are taking meds, get divorced, or have other family issues. If your manager doesn’t do it, he’s in trouble. You have to work from where you are at to where you need to be and that can be literally 4-6 minutes and you need to be back at you station before your lunch or break ends to your first scan can be on that time.. Negotiate a great comp deal. 4+ year of experience working as a Quality Assurance Engineer. Would be strange to try to employee someone better than yourself in such a toxic environment.
