Amazon Fulfillment

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.

Warehouse Stocker

June - August 2019 • Stockton, CA

What I liked

I liked being guaranteed my hours every night! And I like being able to work with a set team of other associates so that I had an idea of how each night would be.

What I wish was different

I wish we had more time for breaks because we technically had 15 minutes but it took about 6 minutes to get across the warehouse and you have to spend that amount of time coming back too so the typical break only lasted about 3-5 minutes.

Advice

It’s a great place to work at as a summer job. I was able to make and save a lot of money very fast giving me the freedom of choosing whether I want to work or not during the school year so I can focus on classes and extracurriculars.
