“I was incredibly lucky to have Gen as my direct Manager for over 3 years. There are so many smart leaders at Amazon and Gen was no exception; she is one of the most intelligent people I have EVER met! I always admired how clear and insightful her directions were. Gen was the type of leader that seemed to have a fix for every technical/tactical problem that was brought to her; a direct reflection of her vast knowledge of the recruiting process. What set Gen apart from other leaders I've worked with is her ability to lead with heart, she brings her full and authentic self to work each day and it inspired her team to do the same and feel safe. Gen is simply the best!”

Letter to the Editor:
To the Editor: I found your portrayal of Amazon to be extremely one-sided. I have worked at Amazon for four years. Yes, it is competitive; yes, the work demand is high; yes, my desk is a slab of wood (who cares?!); yes, I have given Anytime Feedback on my colleagues and have received it as well. But no — I don’t work 80 hours a week; I took four weeks of vacation last year and got promoted.
No, I don’t cry at my desk every day. No, I wasn’t told to forget…Letter to the Editor:

No, I don’t cry at my desk every day. No, I wasn’t told to forget everything I learned in my last job (my skills in that workplace are what secured my job at Amazon!).
You portrayed Amazon as if people had no will to leave if they don’t like it — which is absurd. In Seattle, Amazon employees have numerous options — Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Expedia, Starbucks, Real Networks, Tableau. The list goes on and on. Why didn’t your writers ask, “If you were so unhappy, why did you stay?” Maybe the projects they worked on were interesting, or they wanted to keep vesting their valuable stock. But whatever the reason, it was their choice.
There are many valid points in the article — the struggle for work-life balance, data management as a performance appraisal tool and so on — but they’re lost when the article is so clearly unfair.
