I interviewed at Amazon Web Services (Seattle, WA)
Interview
Long. Be prepared to answer every "tell me about a time when" question you can think of. Did not seem particularly relevant to the role I was interviewing for (Communications PM). Some interviewers were nice, one was outright hostile.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you challenged the status quo and what the positive outcome was.
6 round loop. Takes about 8 hours. One hour each interview, with 2 interviewers per block. Prep is key, no prep, no offer. The interviewer will ask about leadership principals and how they were applied to your qualifications. You will need to prepare 2 stories per leadership principal, and never reuse the same story twice. So 24 stories total.

the k terrier
process with a “gotcha” question to see if you think on your feet
