Pick and Stage

May - August 2019 • Sewickley, PA

What I liked

The ability to work early in the morning for a short amount of time, leaving me time to do other things throughout the day. The people I worked with were very nice, and made my time working at Amazon very fun.

What I wish was different

When requesting days off at least 2 weeks in advance, I still received attendance points for missing a shift. I wish the ability to contact HR and the availability of HR at my specific warehouse was much easier.

Advice

This job wasn't easy in no way, it requires constant movement and the ability to lift some pretty heavy packages. Working at a warehouse that is fulfilling deliveries and me being a part of that experience, makes you want to work harder to make sure that you're making the drivers jobs easier.

Area Manager Intern

June - August 2019 • Rialto, CA

What I liked

The fast paced environment, the room to grow and make change, and the people.

What I wish was different

I wish I had communicated better at getting to know the expectations of an intern and what else I was capable of doing in my role. I also wish I had travelled to different Amazon locations around me.

Advice

Learn how to be self-sustaining in the things you learn and do. In a big company with a fast paced environment, there is not always someone to watch your progress and make sure you hit certain steps. If you hold yourself accountable to your knowledge and performance, you will ensure you have a fulfilling time in the role.

Amazon Associate

June - August 2019 • Eastvale, CA

What I liked

I liked the pay rate from amazon and the full time hours.

What I wish was different

I wish the conditions in the work environment were better and I wish HR was better at providing resources for their employees.

Advice

This full time job is very physically demanding and very fast paced so If you can keep up it is very good money to rack up for the summer.

Warehouse Associate

May - August 2019 • Springfield, VA

What I liked

Fun, engaging work. The work environment was very friendly, a lot of opportunities to speak your ideas to leadership and be heard.

What I wish was different

That the warehouse got those new fans installed quicker. It got super hot a couple of days outta the week. The higher ups and managers would keep us more in the loop about new hires, so we would know when we would have to step up a lot.

Advice

People shouldn't slack on physical labor jobs, and if you can, everyone should work one physical labor job in their life. It can be a great experience where you meet a bunch of people you'd never expect to talk to, my friend group while I worked at amazon was me and these two older African American ladies and they were the best friends I had there. Any physical labor job can be a good experience for people, especially the part where you lose a bit of weight.
