I recently joined Amazon (<30 days) and I’m starting to realize I’m not very happy or energized by the work I’m doing. I want to give it a chance and stick with the team for about 6 months to a year but if nothing changes, how soon could I look for a new team within Amazon?

I’m currently interning at AWS and I have team members who left one team for another within 6 months of being there. I was told, Amazon is encouraging it because there is such a high attrition rate they rather retain you than lose you.

What is it that you don’t like about the role at amazon?

Give it some more time. At least 3 months to see if things become better, keep looking around meanwhile.

Hello all! I was reached out by Publicis Sapient for their Technology Strategy Consulting team and by Capco. Does anyone know what's the work life balance/pay at both of these firms? I am currently at EY under tech consulting making 90K a year in NYC with 1.5 YOE Staff 2 but I do feel I am feeling a bit burnt out at EY. I was wondering if I should wait until I hit Senior then start recruiting with the Senior title or just start recruiting now. Thanks!
