"It’s very easy to get sucked into working at all hours. It’s also very possible that if you aren’t willing to tip the work life balance scales more in favor of work than life that your coworkers will get promoted faster than you. To a certain extent, Amazon performance assessment policies do encourage competition, so this is something to keep in mind and be prepared for. "

"It’s been easy for me to take time for doctors appointments or to work from home when I need to. I’m hoping to negotiate a more concrete work from home agreement in the future. I’m unsure of how this will go as I have not seen anyone else do this yet. "

"Progression is slow. You need to aim for the highest possible role that your qualifications will permit you to rather than playing it safe. If you are rejected you can always re-apply another time using the feedback you receive."

"Amazon has the best compensation that I have found. And they also do a lot of their promoting from within. If you can find a way to view your home office as a job site and treat it like this, it is a wonderful option for women at all levels."
