I’m interviewing at a couple facilities after the new year and they all sound great on paper. I’ve been burned before, so I’m cautious now. What questions do you ask to spot red flags early?

I always like asking why the last person left. I want to hear that they were promoted to a new role. If they left for a better offer, it's not necessarily a deal breaker, but if I get the sense the interviewer is being evasive, I start hearing alarm bells.

That’s a good one to ask, I feel like it really gives you an idea of how the workplace views past & present employees. I’ll keep it in mind!

I always make sure to ask about the culture and the environment. I also always ask "what is one issue you expect someone in this role to run into." I think that question really tells a lot about a company.

That’s is a good one! Gives you an idea of what they expect you to handle in that specific position as well.

I like asking what is one challenge that the department is currently faced with. I like hearing where some difficulties might be if I join and if they say something is wrong then to me it’s a bit of a red flag

That’s definitely a good one, can be very insightful!

Hello people, how common is a Amazon to PWC move ?
I’m interviewing for a Senior Associate role and TC seems to be more competitive than role in L5.

TC $114k- Base AMZ- $73k +$38kstocks ( vesting 17k$ due next year)

TC $135k Base PWC -$81$ + Bonuses ( 50k$)

Looking for managerial skills which the PWC role avails, and L6 promo doesn’t seem to be happening soon in current role. I’m also mentally stretched. I hear WLB in PWC is just as busy but can anyone confirm if this move makes any sense. Google Amazon

Hey all, transitioned from the military last spring and got a UX product manager position at a bank.

Pay is good, but missing the mission aspect of work. Have interview offers from Microsoft and Amazon for cleared PM work, but most of them are less product manager work and more adjacent program work.

I like to apply for Product Manager roles at Amazon since I like the role. I have done front office CRM (SAP) implementations for Fortune50 clients through Accenture.

I have also worked on sales, BD and functional spec creation for new features.
Can I count these as Product Management experience while applying for Amazon or other Faangmula?
