Pros

You can learn retail basics and e-commerce functions, it will help you gain knowledge on the global Amazon tools and processes.

Cons

I have worked close to 3 years here as a vendor manager. There was a change in leadership here recently and the new leaders do not have business knowledge. Instead of getting guidance and support you will get follow ups and tight deadlines. Managers never back you up in business teams. They keep giving you false hopes of promoting, I fell for the same and stayed long enough to get mine. Work life balance is not zero but negative, they have clear expectations that you should not have a family life . I have even heard from a manager asking an employee to comeback from his hometown to Bangalore because he was trying give some time to his family during COVID, quoting if he stays with family he can’t focus on work. When the employee countered, he was told to find a smaller job which will give him more time for family. Pay compensation is peanuts, I’m not exaggerating. When I came out of Appario I understood the market and without any negotiation I was offered 35% hike. You will always see 1 guy doing the work of more than 3 people Please don’t join if you want career growth, Money and work life balance.
