Amazon reviews

Female vs Male pay upholds the 20% variance the U.S. quotes in unequal pay for equal work. Women must meet 120% of job requirements when applying to internal jobs, men only need about 50% of the required skills or experience. Management will actively promote men over women regardless of experience or ability to deliver results. Divisions are actively competing against one another rather than encouraged to collaborate (which would save the company money in the long-term). If you happen to be the single woman at the L10 or L8 level you'll receive more scrutiny than your male counterparts. If you are a woman, you will need to "fall in line" while you see men with less experience get praise and promotion. Women: Beware!

- Culture is toxic and cutthroat under the guise of "ownership." Google Amazon's culture to understand more about this-- it's true-- and it hasn't changed. The threat of being fired is so high people are discouraged from collaborating because they're afraid to take time and energy from their own tasks. Highly silo'd. - Employees are stack ranked (in a list form) not based on output, but favoritism. Very low camaraderie. It's a very facetious culture of being nice enough to get a good ranking but not being so nice that you help someone who can outrank you. - Stocks vesting reflects burnout culture, little to no money until you stay for 2 years. They know most people leave within 2 years so they won't have to pay out.
