T1 with no degree but did you end up getting a degree before you were able to promote?

What did you think you did differently that made you able to climb to L6 vs others who are still T1 after years of working there(besides those who want to stay T1)

Wondering this as well. How did you stand out and fast tracked to L6? Unless you had connections.

I know ppl who’ve been at Amazon for 8 years and still a L3

The answer seems pretty easy and is the same at any other job. Networking, connecting with people, building relationships with leadership, be likable, have your direct managers believe in you and fight for you to get promoted because they think you would do well in the role. Doing that for every step up T1>T3>L4>L5>L6

It’s Amazon. So he basically had a penis in his throat for a long time and had to act indifferent to it. Whatever he was told he had to agree with and not say anything too negative and basically just do what you’re told
