So I just got an Amazon Internship...

[Chris27]

as a software development engineer. I should be receiving a call tomorrow to go over my offer. Any ATOTer who is or has been affiliated with Amazon care to chime in as to what exactly I have gotten myself into ?

Are you sure you didn't fall for the "Amazon Internship" scam?

Luckily, as an intern, you won't be in the on call rotation...

Amazon seems like a good company. They're always giving us free food and prizes at campus, trying to get us to work for them.

Sweet gig, friend of my sister's has worked there for years, loves it.

 

[Leros]

I assume I will find out tomorrow.

What job did you apply for?

 

[Mani]

Have a couple close contacts there. They love it - probably helps that the stock has quintupled since they've been there. One thing that would make me consider it if I decided to move on was that they apparently abhor Powerpoint.

Sunny Seattle, lulz.
