Pluspunten
Amazon has the absolute best Leadership Principles I have ever experienced. When they are followed, they produce the greatest results, and that is what makes Amazon so great. Amazon also has some of the most committed leaders I've ever had the pleasure of working with. There is a significant and noticeable difference between those that always do what's right, and those that just tell you what you want to hear. Most of the time, Ops will come around and make the necessary changes without putting up a fight. Know when to move on by transferring to another site. This is very site and Business Unit specific. The grass truly is greener at other sites.
Minpunten
When I started with Amazon, the principle "You own your career" was encouraging and motivating. Career opportunities are stunted by lack of shift rotation for proper exposure to the site leaders, and lack of experience level by managers that don't know how to recognize talent and Develop the Best. Req's are often filled before they are opened, and it has become about "Who you know" instead of what you have accomplished and what you have to contribute. This creates barriers for those that are ready to be promoted, relocating, looking to transfer, etc. Amazon needs to get back to the pre-Covid standards across the board. It's time for us to "Return to Normal" starting with the associate cell phones not being allowed on the FC floor. The increased number of rest periods is having an adverse effect and increasing rate of injury. Amazon has 20 years of operation prior to Covid and we need to use that data to drive the Safety Culture.
