Hello, does anyone have any insight into the Amazon London location overall and the culture/ work life balance? Interviewing for a L6 role in a logistics/supply chain department. Coming from Texas but recently was informed this role doesn’t cover relocation so I am weighing the pros and cons. Any feedback provided is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Culture and WLB depend on the team and manager.
I would not move from US to UK without relocation cover, that usually is a sign the target position is not as high value as it seems. If it was, they would pay for it.

Hi everyone.
Just reached final on-site round for a Senior Manager position (non tech) in the logistics department (London office). Recruiter has just asked me now for my expected compensation (base salary + total comp) via email before scheduling the loop. Any idea what to aim for?

I don’t know the level but was aiming £80k base, +15% bonus. If I don’t fall under their budget, would I automatically be removed from candidates?

Background: 7YOE, 2 Masters Degree
Any tips are appreciated!

Hi all! I’m currently on promo track for L6 BDM this quarter in London and wondered what the base salary increase % might look like? Would be great to have an idea of what I can expect 😊

Y1: 17K

Y2: 16K

RSU: 500 shares (Y1: 25 Shares, Y2: 75 Shares, Y3: 200, Y4: 200)

Keen to get feedback. Feel that the base salary was too low but from my conversation with the recruiter there might be wiggle room on the cash payments potentially. What are your thoughts? Any tips appreciated!

Thanks

Hello all,

I am currently in the process for interviewing for a role at 
Amazon for their office in Basildon in corporate (HR if it wasn't implied by my title). Spoke to the recruiter and on my application it will be £55k base but wondered what level is that and what leeway I have for bonus (sign on) and what is the RSU looking like. I am also needing some help if possible please on the interview process as I would really like to get this since it is my dream job.

Any help appreciated.

Hi team. I received my offer from Amazon and signed my contract a few weeks ago. I also resigned from my current company after agreeing on a starting date mid-January. Seeing the news of the hiring freeze worries me though - do we know if this applies to roles where offers have been extended? Could they retract an offer after I signed a contract? Not sure what are my rights. Let me know if you have any tips/knowledge to share!
