Hi everyone! I’ve got 6 years as a PM at Amazon across Prime and Prime video in London (3 years of that as a senior PM - L6). Got cut in the last round of layoffs and taking as an opportunity to move to Sydney - any recruiters for tech in Sydney willing to offer some tips?

Working for a senior who is beyond horrible. She talks to you like you’re stupid and makes it sound like you’re absolutely terrible at what you’re doing. She’s made 5 other associates cry during her 5 year career. Got someone fired and made another person quit. It’s known around the office that she can no longer have a female associate, because she talks down to females more than she does males. I came along and thought I could deal with it but she literally makes me want to not log on tomorrow.

Has anyone else felt this way? How did handle it? Is there a different career path I can take or am I destined to sell insurance forever?

At the time I was offered the position my main concern was lack of guidance/support from leadership.

How would you approach this situation? Thanks in advance!!
