Amazon people -- how bad is the culture on the AWS team? Do you have any flexibility to work remote? How do you handle the terrible pto policy?

Have an L6 offer for Sr PM but a bit nervous to jump based on what I'm hearing .....

In a dead end job now but gotten to the point where wlb is pretty chill

Amazon remains a good company to work for. Depending on your objective to take this job versus staying at the current one, it may be a career defining role

All depends on the team and culture of your managers and directors. In general expectations are high.

Can you elaborate on the teams component?
