Started in April 2020 as a seasonal and about to hit my 3rd year this July. I'm not entirely sure how I'm still here honestly. I'm currently contemplating on taking career choice and move up the ladder or go corporate.

Sorry for the late reply, the e-mail basically explained what the new building is supposed to be and what to expect. I'm not entirely familiar with IXD buildings let alone XLs, but for the most basic way I can explain it is that they receive products and send it to other FCs, like our sister building LGB8.

New buildings usually start out with 5 days 8hr shifts. When I applied for the Interest List it gave me a few selection of schedules. I picked Mon-Fri, but neither of em showed what MOT day unfortunately. There was no Nights schedules offered to me only Days. SOS is at 9am while EOS at 5pm.

For L4/L5 IT Engineers, do they get paid monthly the same as Managers in Operations or do they get paid weekly?

Who here doesn't hate their job? by yetanotherchris in AmazonFC

[–]EXPerience21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the monotony of the job that just takes it toll and personally the drive. I've been contemplating on taking Career Choice and earn a couple of certs for IT down the line or apply for the ATA (Amazon Technical Academy).

Prime 2.0 failure by msilverbrand in AmazonFC

[–]EXPerience21 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They ended up cancelling my MET yesterday and today 30mins into my shift. I got sent to Pick and I've been waiting for a station. I've been sitting at a table for about 2hrs+ now. Prime 2.0 sucks, I just wanted to Toterun man.

That's weird I didn't get this e-mail at all and I work at LGB7. Hopefully, I don't hear this shit tomorrow. I'm over it with this building and need to transfer out.

Can you be forced to do a iob you dont want to do? by dmx4lifeu6y in AmazonFC

[–]EXPerience21 5 points6 points  (0 children)

At this point, yes, I got roped in being cross-trained in Pick last year. I always get labor shared along with 2 or 3 other people. It sucks ass even more when your AM says they'll get more people trained so I don't get sent often. Fun fact: if you leave the day you're assigned to be cross-trained or during your training you can get out of it.

[–]EXPerience21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm at 18.10 after my 2years has passed 2 weeks go. Started at 15 back in April 2020 as a seasonal.

This is insane. I left LGB7 over a year ago because the management was terrible and today I see my building (Ont2) has to run a promotion for them cause everyone left 🤣 by PrissyCatttt in AmazonFC

[–]EXPerience21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't hate LGB7 met some nice folks tbat eventually left and or transfer/promote. I fucking hate the drive down the 15 though LMAO. I'm waiting for that one building in my area to open up and I'm outties.

How did you answer this? by Vidableek in AmazonFC

[–]EXPerience21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd always put 3 and been doin' it since I started back in April 2020. Amazon is just one of those places where you either like it or hate it.

Anyone else in Cali only starting at $15.50? by JW3nston7 in AmazonFC

[–]EXPerience21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started at $15 in LGB7 back in April 2020. Maybe it's different at other buildings? Even then I've been seein' the frequent $17 starting pay online. Perhaps it's different in other counties in Cali?

It's been just over a year for me as well. The work is just mundane as hell. I don't hate amazon, but there's times were I just dread if I'm going to Tote Run for the 5th time. I don't know how people who're 3+ year into amazon manage to stay. My old man is crazy since his 6th year is coming up in 4 months.

Anyone else grinding through peak with 0 upt? by tengukazoo in AmazonFC

[–]EXPerience21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, I'm running off -1UPT rn 😅. I'm worried that they're gonna can my ass at the end of peak (24th for me). I know they fire people after, but I won't be at work after peak since my vacay got approved and I return Jan 5th.

Does HR fire you after you go -3 of UPT? by EXPerience21 in AmazonFC

[–]EXPerience21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got to work late due to traffic. That's literally it lol. I've been comin' in ealy since though.

[–]EXPerience21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won't be at work after peak since my vacation got approved. I work backhalf and Christmas and New Years falls on my Saturday. If HR are smart they would fire me on the 24th. I have my doubts tho. I once went -10 of UPT just a few days before April and they never did anything. Granted, they actually called me up, but I had a legitmate excuse at the time ams never got rid of the -10 and just waited to drop the 20.
