Pros

Amazon is a place that does not slow down. We invest in growth and have found a lot of success, which is something to be proud of. You also do not often run into situations where good ideas are not given a fair hearing and/or resources to mature.

Cons

Amazon is run like a conglomeration of small businesses, so your experience depends a lot on your local team. For the most part, there's a very high standard for managers, but a bad manager could have a big impact on your experience and the success of your team.

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.
