Has hiring slowed down?
So I've had 2 hiring managers and several recruiters from Amazon reach out to me about applying for some open positions with the company (android). I completed the coding assessment and now they want me to go through a round of 5 hour interviews next week. Is there a good chance I'll be hired if engineering managers are reaching out to me? I'm really not sure how badly I want to work for them and I don't want to be laid off months after being hired on. Anyone know what Amazon hiring is like?

Has hiring slowed down?
Hey, I have 4 YOE and currently a manager at PwC and have been managing teams for a little over a year now. My role mainly consists of leading teams of engineers deliver MVPs to our clients.
If I wanted to exit to Google or Facebook (Meta) what role would align for me? I was looking at engineering manager roles but unsure if that’s too senior for me.

There's probably a Venn diagram with overlap and distinct sides. On the MBB side, it's PE investment team and corporate strategy groups with high concentrations of MBB alums. On the B4 S&A side, I think tech companies prefer folks with more ops experience so B4 S&A might edge out MBB there.
I work in S&O/BizOpps at a tech firm and consultants are largely viewed all the same as long as you're from a recognizable brand. After that point, what's more valuable is your individual experience.
If you just had to choose though, choose MBB unless you know for sure you'll have a good exp at the particular group within the B4. A random exp in MBB > a random exp in a B4... By a far margin

Thanks for that. I definitely fit into the latter half of what you described. I work at a software company and everything is focused on a specific function within GTM - I think the difference is that DD is able to experiment with new products while my company is 100% focused on selling our initial product.
What does a career path look like for someone from DD s&o

Prolly the same depending more on the individuals, with MBB has higher portions of better exits.
