Business Outlook
Pros
- Better benefits compared to the parent - Amazon (esp medical coverage) - Better work environment in terms of coworkers and office space - Startup like quality and pace of work - Regular access to tech talks and meetups
Cons
- Getting recognized and appreciated for the extra effort is poor owing to parent Amazon's similarly lacking compensation mechanism - Absence of merit based appreciation - Some people are over worked while others are vacationing but at the end of the year, everyone makes the same salary based on your level
