Amazon is not a great place to flex being a creative’s creative - it’s very business focused and strat driven and the processes and people are robotic. If you go Amazon, take it for the money and get as much as you can. Limited PTO and holidays, company-value driven to the point of cult, thicccc processes that get in the way of joy/play/expression/fun (which kills creative imo). Lots of ppl do it, idk how I had to leave.
