Pros

1. Amazon is a great place to work for! You will get a lot to learn and if you are an enthusiast in problem solving then Amazon is a right place for you. 2. Peers are helpful in unblocking you from facing hurdles initially and when days go by, you will be mentored to unblock yourself on your own. 3. You will feel included in the team and your voice/ideas is always heard by people as Amazon considers employees as their super-powers. 4. Amazon is an open place where you can explore whichever carrier opportunity you want to choose/ whichever technology you want to work on.

Cons

1. Amazon basically follows a start-up culture, hence in few teams the processes are not streamlined though. Yet, you will be regularly asked about the issues you faced as a new joiner/employee and people will definitely look-up for ways to fix streamlining the process.

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.
