Pros

Freedom to run your own recruiting strategy casual dress dogs are allowed working with smart people Industry leader, easy sell to candidates flexibility around schedule when you need it Great place to work if you are crazy about recruiting and want no life No micromanagement

Cons

no direction minimal support treated like a number no training Was placed in wrong role per my background, Feeling that no one cares if you're successful or not Do not get the "team" atmosphere feeling High level of competition for candidates, no team focus or strategy. Very long hours, not a good work life balance I would not recommend Amazon as a place to work to friends or families

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.
