I am a SC in Deloitte with 12 years of work ex. Amazon recruiter has reached out to me for a Sr. TPM role. I have already cleared HM round. My doubt is as I have heard work culture in Amazon is crazy. Would it be better for me to go for a TPM role instead of Sr. TPM. Not sure how the responsibilities differ between the two roles

This question gets asked almost every week. The standard response is that Amazon/AWS is not homogeneous and you should vet the hiring manager and team thoroughly before making a decision

like

Ask what the turnover/attrition rate in the team is. Probe for management style etc,team diversity etc. Interviews aren't only a one way street, you should be using the multiple loops (interviews) to learn about the team and how they're managed.

AWS work culture is day and night different from amazon

You mean it's better or worse?
