Reach out to your hiring manager, they’re usually pretty good at providing guidance.

FWIW most folks use MacBook Pro and some from SAP team use windows machines.

I got a Lenovo with windows and I was told not to get a Chromebook

I love my Chromebooks.

I thought I would hate it but they are awesome. Especially since we are a Google workspace / gsuite shop

I actually lied ...I really love my straight Linux / popos laptop. Sigh....to bad we don't offer straight Linux laptops

Just did this and got Mac… no regrets

Currently interviewing with Amazon for an associate corporate counsel role. After the first round, I was quickly moved on to the written exercise but its now been a month since I submitted it and I haven’t received any update on my application despite following up with HR once. Wondering if anyone is in a similar boat and whether I should just write it off as a refusal… if anyone here works at Amazon, would be helpful to know if this is common. Thanks!
