What they like about Amazon:
Working for a company with an emphasis on social values and helping society is a clear and important priority for you - a critical factor in who you choose to work for. In contrast to other factors, you place an organization's reputation for fairness and concern for the community above most other aspects of the company. As you search for a new job opportunity, it is usually possible to find out if the company is involved in the community and/or if it is addressing problems and issues in society. Pay special attention to non-profit organizations and those specifically involved in social action. Moreover, speaking with current and former employees should enlighten you to perceptions of the fairness of the company's leaders and the treatment of employees.

This book is amazing. I won't lie, it was a slow read, but that's because there was so much to absorb. Two thumbs up. |
| The Phoenix Project |
This book hit close to home. The protagonist found himself responsible for legacy software management and development. His journey from stress-filled, 90+ hour weeks, to an organized manager of a productive team is an inspiration. |
