Amazonian life during CV19
Pros
I joined Amazon during lock-down and have been home working ever since with the occasional office visit. It has been a wonderful company from day one and exceeded my expectations on the care they've offered to employees during this tough period. I've found all my colleagues to be clever, engaging and thoughtful people - determined to do the right thing and instill both quality and innovation in their work ethos!
Cons
The hiring process is an excellent and enjoyable experience (something you can rarely say about large companies!), however the onboarding experience was quite disorientating -- largely due to starting from home working and needing to find information online in internal systems. With my boss being based in a different country and timezone it also took a while for me to fully 'part of the team' but then I think that's true of any company you join.
