I haven't heard good things about working at Amazon. Like at any level of the organization.

Lovin the comments by all the big 4 fans boys here yet if they actually passed the loop and got big Amazon money they will all jump ship in a heartbreat 😉

What’s the point of making more if it’s short-term? Avg tenure at Amazon is 18 mo

I am currently a year from finishing my PhD and was looking at VC's as a career path because I like to do meta-analysis of different climate change techs. I networked with VCs and one of them was receptive but didn't have the budget currently for a full time hire. They said they'd be interested in working with me to do a research paper over the coming semester, and was wondering if I could leverage this into a full time offer?

Is a white paper with a VC going to be attractive on my CV?

Perspective. I’m retiring from the service and I’ve positioned myself decently to be competitive. I have a graduate degree pursuing a doctorate, LSSBB, ScrumMaster, SPHR, and PMI-ACP.
