Was part of the AWS S&O team for 8 months before coming back to consulting. The hours are long and the culture brutal (just short of toxic). 60-70 hours easy with atleast one weekend day spent working

To start with it's a culture shock first. Being a high growth environment you have multiple projects and you're expected to figure it out and produce results. I did not have a team and was trying to figure out everything on my own. In the end results are all that matter. And this attitude of the leadership just got to me. If I were a 20 something, I'd probably burn 80hours a week but I didnt need this now with a family

Culture at Amazon is certainly more on the aggressive/ high intensity side. Studied them in management classes when at uni. Several employees said it’s not uncommon for people to break down and cry once every two weeks or so.

Doubtful if it’s less than 60 hours

I was in the final stages of an interview with Microsoft two weeks ago, in partner marketing. Then the recruiter told me they were putting the hiring process on hold to assess the need for the role. Well, then we heard about Microsoft layoffs last week. Seems like most were in Xbox and Project Alpha but there’s not a lot of information out there. Should I hold out any hope that I’m going to get this job? Any insights on how much these layoffs have impacted the marketing org and/or new hiring?

I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.
