Pros

Some of the brightest, hardest working people I've had the pleasure to work with. It grows faster than you can ever imagine and it does so through relentless internal review and a willingness to say "Am I doing this right?". Hands down, this company and its culture is some of the best in the world.

Cons

With the culture comes a pace of work that NEVER stops. At Amazon, they want you to move quickly...if you don't, they'll find someone who will. It's not callous, nor is it bad business...it just requires a 100% dedication at all times. If at any point, you feel as if you cannot give 100%...I recommend looking elsewhere.

Pros

Cross training that helps for faster growth and more experience.

Cons

Sometimes you gotta hurry and find equipment or pit equipment before others snag them and leave you with the “bad” ones. That take forever to get repaired.

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.
