Amazon Buyer

Hi guys,

So I'm looking at Amazon as a possible employer. Here's what I think stands out about this company:

  • Pretty good comp.
  • Entrepreneurial culture.
  • Buying is a pretty important part of the business.
  • Jeff Bezos is a baws.

Anything else I should look out for? Reading 'One-Click' at the moment, and it's quite interesting.

Had friends that did their SA gig there (in technology) and said all of the above, but they also really put you through the grinder in terms of hours

My drinkin' problem left today, she packed up all her bags and walked away.
 

Amazon - provided they execute properly, I think will potentially displace Apple as the most valuable company in the world within 10 years.

Amazin is really a curve-jumping, paradigm shifting Company. It is quite literally, single-handedly changing how it is we think about retail.
