"As someone who has worked at Amazon for the past 5 years i have seen only a handful of women in leadership roles. This company is constantly hiring new college graduates and cycling through them at an astonishing rate, but few are women. I was told from an operations manager that I must not have aspirations of advancing due to being on the "mommy track". Please keep in mind my male coworkers also have children and have not received the same feedback. "

"Everything depends on the team. I have been fortunate to work on teams where women were strongly represented in leadership positions (all the way through the VP-levels); however, I have heard that more IT/AWS type teams are more heavily male-dominated. Note that all SVPs (except HR) are men at Amazon."
