EY3 - Idk man, you’re description sounds very similar to public accounting, except the RSUs making employees rich.

likefunny

Sounds like a job where I wouldn’t have to bring my computer home every night and on vacation and that is something you can’t put a price tag on. I would want to know more, but sounds pretty awesome!

These jobs are absolutely brutal. 4 12 hour days on your feet all day, immense pressure every single day. There’s 4 shifts:
Sunday - Weds 6am to to 6pm
Sunday - Weds 5pm to 5am
Weds - Saturday 6am to 6pm
Weds - Saturday 5pm to 5am

During prime week and over the holidays (2 months total) you work 6 12 hour days a week. Worse than our busy season.

If you’re just starting...you’ll get the weekend nights most likely. Your friend sounds like he is atleast a “senior operations manager” which would be 5+ years of warehouse operations management experience - even then that salary is probably inflated. An Ops manager makes around 90k at Amazon - tops.

Good pay - the RSUs made a lot of employees rich. Very brutal and tough job and hours. You’re managing a warehouse full of...well, warehouse employees. 90% who don’t want to be there.

@PWC1 - my buddy went from Amazon to EY. Imagine quality of life working 5pm to 5am every Friday and Saturday night - then having to sleep all day Sunday. Extremely hard to socialize, keep up with friends, and make new friends.

If you have no life outside of work / hell yea go for it. Better pay. If you do? Not ideal for mental health.
