I didn’t really realize how mentally draining Amazon was until I left. After four years as a T1, trying out different roles and responsibilities, I started to see it wasn’t really a place I could build a career in. The work culture is unlike anything I’ve experienced. I was tired all the time, but I just thought that’s what work was supposed to feel like. Mentally, I had kind of checked out and didn’t even notice how much it was affecting me.

It’s not the worst job out there, but the way it’s set up can really wear you down over time if you stay long enough. Amazon wasn’t my first job but I stayed longer than I should have.
