That’s pretty cool. I wonder if they include masters degrees in any of their benefits. ?

It looks like the tuition/costs page says otherwise (if nothing else, employees get discounted per-credit tuition): https://www.tesu.edu/amazon/costs-tuition

It’s definitely an amazing program. It seems to have some limitations. I saw somewhere that it is not for salaried positions. I wonder if they allow second degrees. That would be great for someone who might want to transition to an IT career or something like that

It'll be interesting to see whether PLRs are completed for Amazon certifications that could work in the new cloud computing degree.

One of my Amazon interviewers told me they'd never heard of a Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science, and asked if I could tell them more on TESU. I told them it's an accredited university.

Now I can tell them it's a part of the Amazon Career choice network if I'm asked again next time I apply.

a BA (as opposed to a BS) in CompSci is still an incredibly common degree, what an awful recruiter.
