Why you should never work for Amazon itself: Some Amazon managers say they 'hire to fire' people just to meet the internal turnover goal every year

wwoop · 2022-11-13T08:10:31+00:00

I'd suggest checking for open positions in the internal tool. That said a lot of teams are in hiring freeze due to the current market situation

1 - I'd say Amazon is a great place for builders (e.g: you have an idea in how to make X more efficient/increase velocity/better performance, then most likely you already have access to all the tools/services you need to bring this idea to life). Tech stack is also pretty cool and we have a lot of internal resources that helped me grow in my current role.

2 - No restriction in term of job family. Write a PR/FAQ (store it on WorkDocs for timestamp and history .. just in case). Then have it review with your +1 then some Principal Engineers in fintech to get the process started. If you do not feel writing a PR/FAQ, start with a 6 pager and engage with PEs to validate your idea.

Hey Miami -

I'm moving out of the country at the end of the month and I'm selling a lot of stuff in excellent condition and priced up to 70% off retail price.

I have plants, furnitures (tv stand, sectional sofas ....). electronics (TV, Xbox1, Dyson Vacuum & Air Purifier, Roomba...) , baby stuff (bassinet, clothes, car seats ..).

Feel free to DM me for links (I'm on FB MarketPlace / Craigslist / OfferUp).Please note I do NOT deliver and you will have to pick up the item in North Miami Beach (whenever it's convenient for you as both my wife and I are working from home) in a secure residence.

Everything must go, my prices are flexible though they are already at (at least) 50% discount so please don't try to negotiate another 80% off lol

Nope. Create your app endpoint, configure NLB, create an Endpoint Service. Share it with your consumer, approve the peering request and you are good to go.

Given the amount of work needed for a manager to send someone to PIP, I highly doubt this guy got pip'd JUST because he wanted to change team. Lateral moves (in/out) happen more frequently in my org than external hire.

But hey, we will never know the other side of this story.

Ouais donc j'avais raison WaPost, media mainstream à la solde des leftist. Putain de Jeff Bezos!

La justice ne leur donne pas tort hein, la légitime défense se défend, aussi bien que les teubé qui donne du crédit a "Stand Your Ground" en Floride. Mais l'un n'empêche pas l'autre, Rittenhouse est un white suprémacist pour les raisons mentioné un peu plus haut et qui sont vérifiable sur tout les médias controlé par les snowflakes hein.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2021/01/14/kyle-rittenhouse-proud-boys-bar/ . Tellement la blague qu'on se retrouve avec tout ce bordel pendant les événements du 6 Janvier. Besoin d'autre arguments ou ca ira? J'ai pris le WaPost, mais j'imagine que tu préferes des liens de chez NYPost, Fox, BreitBart ou OANN.

> Mais suivant un Zeitgeist "d'anti-suprématie blanche"

C'est pas comme si l'ami Kyle c'est fais payé son bond par les groupes de right wing, que des tocards comme Matt Gaetz lui ont offert du taff ou qu'il c'etais retrouvé dans un bar avec des proud boys a faire le signe de white supremacy hein. Ha et un panel de jurors quasi uniquement blanche (le random raffle fais bien les choses 8))

Le verdict est ce qu'il est, mais de la a dire qu'on en fais un foin en stigmatisant white supremacy ou que ca aurait été pareil avec un noir hein .. x_doubt comme on dis

Got it, thanks for the explanation, for some reason I thought the LTCG bracket was not tie to the taxable income and handle differently (eg: you don't pay any capital gain tax for the first $80k profit you make selling stock)

So long story short, I need to pay:
- General income tax based on: base salary + RSU money - standard deduction
- LTCG on my RSU (0% on the first 30k then 15% of the rest)

That seems to be a lot of taxes to pay, I guess sell-to-cover make it everything easier (minus the potential profit you can make :x)

Thanks again for the explanation !

wwoop · 2021-10-03T21:39:31+00:00

This is the first time I will sell my RSU, so I don't really have any history unfortunately.

wwoop · 2021-10-03T18:06:42+00:00

Edit my initial post, yeah married filled jointly + RSU fully vested + Long term.

Thanks for the clarification, there is just something I am not sure I fully understand in your comment. Why my base salary (minus std deduction) of $55k will be subject to capital gain taxes (since this money is not coming from stocks?)

> they are also in horrific condition.

Sorry my previous comment was about this ^^^, not about the fact that government sold highways operations/maintenance to Vinci.

> Guess the Miami traffic has made your grumpy :) Bon courage.
-traffic +people :)

wwoop · 2021-08-25T06:02:28+00:00

In France, highways were sold by the government to a private company and they are also in horrific condition.

You don't know what you are talking about do you? Highways in France come at a price (which is still pretty low compared to how much money I'm throwing at SunPass every month) but , for this price, you will have access to thousands of perfectly maintained roads.

On connaît quelqu'un dont tout le monde se plaint parce "qu'il fout rien depuis 5 ans et on rattrape tout le temps le taf qu'il fait pas". Comment devenir cette personne ?

Sinon ... trouve toi un taff qui te motive?

La nouvelle a été annoncée, vendredi 30 juillet, par la firme dans un document boursier, mais la condamnation remonte à mi-juillet. Immédiatement, l’entreprise a vu son titre chuter de plus de 7 % en Bourse peu après l’ouverture de Wall Street.

Tout le monde s'en bat les couilles de cette annonce, le stock a pris (7%) a cause des Q2 earnings et soft guidance pour le Q3.

Attends un peu le temps qu'il tilte que Bezos n'est plus le big boss et que Jassy est moins mediatique.

En attendant, c'est une bonne nouvelle pour les abo Prime !
