Question Advice needed

I need some advice from anyone who may have been thru this type of scenario..I'm a part time T1 and i was in a relationship with a PA who works in my dept for a few months. I had no idea about Amazon's fraternization policy until she told me because i had never been involved with someone at Amazon before and she's had some HR cases brought up in the past. So things eneded with us and now things are super uncomfortable at work. I tried to transfer depts in my site but they dont have anything part time per business needs. Anyone have any suggestions?? I dont wanna tell HR the REAL reason why i wanna transfer because i have a feeling they will just fire us both.

It’s only salaried leaders that can’t date but you should’ve reported a long time ago to move departments.

Policy is that all relationships between different levels of employees must be disclosed, with a strict rule that L4s and up are not allowed to fraternize in any capacity with T3 and below. Not doing so and HR being made aware of the relationship will most likely end up with the T3 being let go.

That said, its easy af to transfer shifts/depts, the why does not matter, HR would only be able to influence the decision if theres a conflict of interest, once you become an AA, shift and dept headcount are strictly operational decisions.

If you feel youre being targeted because of the relationship and report that to HR theres a 99% chance that your ex is terminated, and depending on what HR uncovers in the investigation there may be discipline involved for you as well.

Just put in for your transfer, its the perfect time to do it, going to be lots of room to move around here soon, and be patient unless you really feel you need to get HR involved.

And try and not meet potential partners at work almost never works out. Good luck!
