Supposed to join Amazon in the next couple of months. My current organization has a very laid back, positive and supportive work culture and at the moment im in a very comfortable spot. Ofcourse Amazon being a bigger and much better brand, is a very enticing opportunity.  I just wanted to know if IM taking the right decision to leave my current org and how much of a difference in culture do I need to prepare myself for

Hi Guys,

I got a decent offer from Amazon this week. When i am searching on multiple review sites like Glassdoor etc, about working culture at Amazon, i am hardly getting any positive reviews? 

Can somebody pls share insights so that i can take switching decisions accordingly?

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

A little background:
I started coding properly from Nov’21, started with C++ and gradually leveled up and began full fledged problem solving in vacations as there was nothing else to do exams were over. I did problem solving with the intent on fetching a job offer. Overall during my entire preparation I solved more or less 450 problems (leetcode & others). 
Then came the placement session. I somehow secured two offers on the same day and the TPO office decided to give my name only for a single company which was Amazon.

Present:
As offers get rescinded to Jan’24. I somehow got an off-campus offer in a PSU where I am currently working. Here I am working in s/w development team, and till now:
1. I have developed two modules (by looking at already implemented code and figuring out how it can be used in my modules).
2. Some generic classes to format all reports generated in the entire project. (object, constructor and methods, fairly easy although understanding the requirement was the tough part).
The problem is that I always take time to figure out the things and I have this solid impostor syndrome. I take time in understanding the requirements and how to get started and what to do next.
This may be due to the fact that I didn’t get converted into full time from my internship (In retrospect this was seriously my fault, I was too much occupied with my final year thesis, the project itself was too hard and complicated and the mentor was mostly busy and no-one else in the team of entry level from whom I could discuss more, also other college issues). Sometimes I think that I could have done it better.

Dilemma:
Now as my joining date is coming close I’m super confused and nervous (given the present scenario) a bit scared to leave the current job and join Amzn or not. I am starting to feel that I am not prepared and have not solved any problem for the past 5 months. Read some reviews regarding Amzn and it all seems that the pressure is going to be too much and I'm not sure

Hi guys,
I joined Epam 8 months back as Senior Software Engineer and working for amazon client.
But now got offer from Kotak mahindra bank as SDE 2 but hike is only 10%.

So should I join kotak or not and what about culture and work in kotak.

#engineering #software #swe  #epam #amazon #sde #sde2 #kotak #kotakmahindrabank

Should I join Kotak Mahindra Bank as SDE 2 ?

Confused in choosing an offer:
1. Highspot: 36fixed + 2L pf + 1.5L bonus + 10L stocks vested over 4yrs
2. Peopletech/Amazon: 36 fixed  
3. Evernorth: 32.5 fixed + 3.5 vp+ 1L bonus
I have 6.10yrs exp, I'm into java, spring. Money wise HS is much better but the problem is it is Ruby tech stack & monolith. Evernorth is java but pay is less. Amazon offer: need to work at Amazon office, so thinking to chose Amazon as there will be great learning & exposure to cloud. Is this good decision?

I am a fresher currently working at Texas Instruments as a software developer and I have deferred offer from Amazon. Should i consider joining Amazon considering that I have almost same compensation at this time.
What will be your take on this considering the competitive market? For now work life balance is good at Texas instruments.

What's the future scope comparing both texas instruments and amazon?

Heard from multiple colleagues that they could cut Ads and AWA teams in India. Wouldn’t be surprised if this happens on Tuesday or Wednesday just before the earnings calls. 

All the best folks!

Review about AppDynamics Cisco

Trying to see companies that people here have had the dream to join, but didn’t ultimately work out. Have you now grown over it?

Which company were you obsessed with joining, but never could?

For me it was McKinsey 
 It was the best job out of college, status wise. 
  
 Did well in college and made it to the final shortlist. Was obsessed with it, read books and all about The Firm. 
  
 Then the interviews happened, couldn’t convert. Was a downer.  
  
 But 5 years later, doesn’t matter much. I feel life taught me better things. And my fascination of consulting jobs has changed drastically since :p

Corporate Strategist

I joined my current org right out of college and have been working here for 2+ years. I really like the company’s culture, openness while pay is also great as per my standards and needs.

I recently interviewed for a startup casually and got an offer as well. Now I’m in a dilemma whether I should join the new org or stay although the pay jump looks pretty decent to me. 

P.S. Not a brag post but genuinely looking for answers as I’m really out of touch with the industry and given the current recession, can’t really make up my mind.

Current TC.- 20
Offered - 26 + variable

Should I switch if I really like my current org?

What is the best career advice you ever received?
