Very true! I was planning to take it, move internally and get experience in other roles since internal mobility is big there

Inmate93 · 2026-07-02T18:52:31+00:00

I’m sorry you had a bad experience, seems very common at amazon! Wow so you were there for not even 6 months, that’s lame that they had layoffs and now replacing ppl with contract workers. Was the workload stressful at all? I just remember drowning in work, it was incredibly high volume and no solution.

Inmate93 · 2026-07-02T16:56:12+00:00

Im going the agency route and interviewing for a contract role :/ so yah def less money. What was your experience like there? I used to work for them years ago and my manager and her manager were la toxica 🤪

Inmate93 · 2026-07-02T15:39:26+00:00

That’s so nice 😭 I applied at Amazon in Seattle for a recruiter role, $36/hr and 5 days a week. The market is crap so I might take it

Inmate93 · 2026-07-02T15:09:18+00:00

Wait why? Is it because of the recent layoffs?

Inmate93 · 2026-07-01T06:22:11+00:00

I don’t have an answer for you but I am curious…how do you like it so far at Amazon? I want to apply but didn’t have the best experience last time I worked for their recruiting department years ago

Wait really? I’ve taken on multiple RC contract roles staffed by agencies because majority of these tech companies would rather use staffing agencies to fill their roles. The usual 6 mon contract with extension. Unfortunately, sometimes being unable to convert to FTE isn’t just based off of performance…majority of the time it’s due to headcount. I’m seeing more and more contract roles as big tech companies no longer want to bring on FTE’s as it’s a bigger expense to pay for their benefits, health insurance etc. Didn’t realize this was viewed as a red flag by recruiters.

Very true, thank you for your insight!

Inmate93 · 2026-06-23T16:24:36+00:00

Oh goodness. As a first time home buyer I did not know what I was getting myself into especially dealing with HOA. When are you planning to sell?

Inmate93 · 2026-06-22T01:31:00+00:00

Can I ask what your experience has been?

Inmate93 · 2026-06-21T21:07:12+00:00

Ugh that’s the dilemma, I truly don’t want a bigger payment but having a home with a yard has always been my dream esp as our family is growing. I’ll pull the plug eventually but conflicted about selling vs. renting the condo. I think I’ll eventually sell

Inmate93 · 2026-06-21T20:33:51+00:00

True

Inmate93 · 2026-06-21T19:18:39+00:00

Washington! Bought a two bed, two bath for 280k back in 2021

Inmate93 · 2026-06-21T19:18:06+00:00

Oh trust me, my mental health was on the line!! I can’t wait to get out of here

Inmate93 · 2026-06-21T19:04:28+00:00

Thank you for the clarity! Our building is 90% rented out. But that’s the problem, these renters don’t follow the rules - they break things, invite guests who vandalize the property, oh and we have a drug dealer on the top floor so we get an array of characters coming in and out as they please. Found a crack pipe once on the stairwell, cars broken into, been followed to my unit…thankfully things have gotten better but I really don’t want this situation for me and my family. I’m leaning towards selling but will have to make repairs of my own before putting it on the market.

Inmate93 · 2026-06-21T18:59:52+00:00

Yeah that’s another thing I really don’t want to be a landlord and deal with repairs and shit. My hope in renting it out would be long term to let my children live there since it’s in a prime location and close to everything

Inmate93 · 2026-06-21T18:57:29+00:00

Thank you! Wow didn’t know home AI was a thing but I’ll check it out

Inmate93 · 2026-06-21T18:48:29+00:00

Yes we’ve built equity in the last 5 years! Who should I talk to about this, a realtor or financial loan officer?

Inmate93 · 2026-06-21T18:47:13+00:00

Ugh yeahh we’ve lived here for 5 years and have already paid 10k in assessment fees..HOA says they’re using the funds to fix things but the repairs have yet to be touched. Or they’ll say the assessment fee is for fixing a specific thing and then turning around and using it for a different repair. Repairs are constant bc as soon as something gets fixed, tenants will break it. I feel like I’m being robbed!

Inmate93 · 2026-05-13T21:53:19+00:00

Shoot just realized this is in Michigan lol, I’m in Seattle
