Description

Jonathan Dughi, Former Senior Software Development Manager at Amazon
Jonathan was the head of engineering at Amazon Smile, Amazon's charity program that made it easy for shoppers to give back when they purchased from the online retailer. We explore his background and how Jonathan landed a job offer at Amazon as a software engineer with a history degree.
Jack and Rick also quiz Jonathan about what it's like to work at Amazon. We take a deep dive into the responsibility of a manager at Amazon, including the day-to-day work of a technical lead, coaching teammates and performance reviews. Finally, we tackle Amazon's employer brand and the company's allegedly unique take on performance improvement plans and whether the so-called "PIP culture" really exists.
