Pros

As someone who promoted from within, I find the work fairly easy for the money

Cons

Someone new to the field and/or Amazon will struggle with the sheer volume of information and expectations thrown at them in the first 90 days. Keep a notebook and listen to the people who have worked there longer than you (but use your best judgement when picking a mentor)

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
