Yes. What type of role?
I'm the hiring manager... How can I help you?
I think xenonscreams did back in the day, but she is long gone from this cesspool.
The Amazon does not run as far north as Seattle. I'm sorry, but you've been scammed.

Rumor is that it stops at Uranus, is this true?

Read this.
https://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/16/technology/inside-amazon-wrestling-big-ideas-in-a-bruising-workplace.htmlThey are a CIA front company, watch your step. One wrong move and you get a heart attack.
I just got a 2nd job with Amazon in a fulfillment center warehouse. All the negative suspicions are true regarding "frontline" employees.
My warehouse is not physically demanding & while boring, the work is not hard. But you are monitored every second with scanners or a person shadowing you. Using the restroom or getting water is verbally scolded- On that, I had HR tell them to back off. Every second you are scanned & watched. You are a physical puppet & they pull the strings. It is like prison guards & inmates. This feels undignified- like wearing a leash for them to control me with. Very difficult.
The 18-19 year-olds, or those with low creative intelligence simply go with it. They don't know better.

Well, the way I hear it told is that Uranus is a gassy giant.
I have insight. It is, among their college educated or higher earning employees, a political gauntlet where large salaries are given out to doughy middle aged sophomoric liberals to brainstorm ideas but not actually produce anything of substance. They want you to be wired to your email constantly so it looks like things are organized.
It’s is a sycophantic political squabble everyday, they want 80 hrs a week to support the illusion of whatever it is that people see , many among their entitled elite do bing on an irregular basis. It is a den of inequity
