As in ecomm? It can be a drudge in some roles. Lots of frameworks, templates, retailer requirements to work within.

I'm interviewing for what sounds like 2 different roles at Amazon (not AWS) they are both L6 but in different areas of the business. One is in Finance/Global Business Services and the other is in Project/Product/Program Management (Non-tech). I feel like one of the roles is more senior in the work the one in Project/Product/Program Management and to be hone the on in Finance/Global business services seems much less intense. Do you think they'd offer me significantly more for one role?

Any insight would be great thanks!

What do you do when you absolutely love the work you do and the content you're making but you are just completely done with an incredibly difficult and unnecessarily demanding team. I don't think i can handle working with these people anymore, I'm so entirely burnt out, but i absolutely hate that my only option is to just leave the work i like doing and that I'm proud of. And I work in a very niche industry so i can't just do the same thing somewhere else.

Hi all - I’m the head of the project management department at my agency. I’ve been here almost two years and want to move from my cube to a vacant office but need to convince my superiors. Any advice?

It’s been close to half a year since I told a recruiter I’d get back to them with an updated book. The reason why it’s taken me so long is because of a family friend passing from covid and me also feeling like my book was never good enough. Since it was my dream agency I wanted to show my best self but the pandemic cancelled basically all the projects I was excited about putting in my book and all I really have is mostly student work.
