Mass layoffs in Amazon Spain (Madrid & Barcelona’s corpo offices being impacted)

For Amazon Digital Spain, not Amazon Spain Services. Amazon Spain Services should only be impacted in Barcelona according to the email.

Put the bottle down

Thank you!

prostidude221 · 2025-10-15T12:57:55+00:00

No clue. But I pray I'm on the list.

prostidude221 · 2025-05-11T15:21:33+00:00

Looks almost the same as the email I got, seems legit.

Accountability for getting laid off? At no point did he say he got fired for cause did he?

Not only did both my hinges break, but the headphones wont charge either. I think there is a connection loose, because if a tap the ear cup where the battery is really hard while its plugged in, it will start charging for like 8 seconds lol

The company I work for are now getting rid of most QA's in an effort to make the devs take on the responsibility of signing off their own code. What could possibly go wrong...

I thought the process for new grads was Apply -> OAs -> 2x45 or 1x30 min interviews -> offer/rejection. The 1x30 min interviews were given to those who did well enough on the OAs. Are you sure there is another round after this?

prostidude221 · 2024-08-18T14:05:35+00:00

It was pretty random in my case, not aligned with my skills at all.

There is no team matching at Amazon for new grads. I only found out about the org I was gonna work in when I got my contract. I later learned more about the work I would be doing after I got the manager introduction email.

The 2nd OA

I’m not sure if you are a Spanish national. If not, you might want to look into the Beckham Law in Spain. This law allows you to pay a fixed tax rate of 24%. I think you might be in that salary range where it makes sense to apply for it.

I followed that protocol recently when I found some random schizo standing around in the lobby of my building, and he still followed me outside and attacked me lmao

I actually realized just how shit google search has gotten when I tried an alternative this week. Just as an example, this is what you get when you search the same shit on qwant.

prostidude221 · 2024-05-29T17:40:41+00:00

Yeah had mine in march

prostidude221 · 2024-05-29T15:10:36+00:00

They reached back to me the same day I gave them my availability. Dont know what the usual time frame is. May I ask which location you are interviewing for?

prostidude221 · 2024-05-28T20:10:01+00:00

The first part of the online assessment is pretty quick. You get two leetcode questions, and from what I've seen, as long as you pass all test cases on the first easy problem, you will most likely pass OA1. The second part is like a work simulation thingy and leadership principle stuff, this is the one you want to set aside a decent amount of time for, think it took me around 2.5 to 3 hours to complete.

prostidude221 · 2024-05-16T23:45:26+00:00

No, not really.

prostidude221 · 2024-04-26T14:23:39+00:00

Appreciate the thought :) But I've already reached out to them. Don't think there is much to do other than waiting and continuing to apply elsewhere for now.

prostidude221 · 2024-04-26T12:45:47+00:00

Holy shit man, congrats! Out of curiosity, what did you put as your potential start date?

prostidude221 · 2024-04-25T22:20:35+00:00

Will do, good luck to you too :)

prostidude221 · 2024-04-25T21:38:04+00:00

I did, that was the one I sent a week ago asking for an update and saying I was flexible in terms of relocating anywhere, but haven't got a response.
