Pros

I work with remarkably intelligent, passionate people who are unfortunate being squandered by upper management.

Cons

After tens of thousands of my coworkers were laid off and several RTO mandates, the senior leadership at Amazon has revealed itself to be a bunch of spineless cowards. Where Amazon once prided itself for its "peculiar" ways, it now follows trends. Jeff Bezos spoke of how hard it is to build trust and how easy it is to lose it, and the S-team have been an archetypical example of that. Amazon has no leadership anymore. It's headed by a bunch of stuffed suits.

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.
