Pros

0-2 years experienced young employees are awesome. They work hard and smart.

Cons

Most of Sr. designer I met and worked is terrible. I don't understand our promotion process. They talk a lot (that's it) but do small things. And also managers are always in meetings - no time to think and discuss design stuffs that managers manage. Plus no diverse.

Pros

No micromanagement, new buildings' interiors are beautiful, good pay.

Cons

Dry, scrappy, boring corporate projects. UX is essentially considered as UI in many departments at Amazon. Emphasis on getting things done fast, rather than well. In general, people don't want to bond and it's a very individualistic culture. Not much diversity. The tools you'll use are all internal tools, so they won't be useful in your next job.
