      Pros

      Amazon is very gracious with their compensation. Mine included a substantial bonus, complete relocation package, and high salary.

      Cons

      Very difficult work/life balance. Typical 4 day work week is still in excess of 45-50 hours, with 60 - 70 hour weeks very common. Seems to be a poor plan laid out to cover the extreme growth of the company, leading to a very high turn over rate of management.

      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.
