Pros

Audible is well intentioned. HR does believe the kool aid they serve, but the truth is that there's no follow through. They do good things for the community of newark. They will sometimes promote people, but usually it's not people who are actually qualified to hold those positions.

Cons

DEI is a mess, performative, political, and run by white women who are unqualified for their roles, they're just friends C-Suite. It's nepotism central, if you're related to or friendly with upper management, you'll never get a low performance rating. Be prepared to do 10x the amount of work that would normally be expected of you because your output will be constantly compared to amazon teams that are twice the size of your team, but your productivity is expected to be the same.

Pros

Audible is an Amazon company. I think as a whole, this company attracts people who are kind and fun spirited. Good product.

Cons

Disorganisation. Commute can be hard.

Pros

Your hours are very flexible as you just have to submit the first 15 minutes of the book by a certain date and then the final audiobook by a certain deadline.

Cons

This was a royalty share contract with no base pay and I only made about $70 total after many hours of work.
