Pros

Moving to Amazon was a good pay bump. It’s a large company so there are opportunities to move around (granted the hiring freeze/layoffs affect that).

Cons

Very very very political. For such a large company, it’s crazy how unorganized and unstructured things are. There is this perception that whole orgs are run as mini-startups so standardized processes are hard to come by. I guess you could say then that there are plenty of opportunities to improve the way things are done, but that can be tough with the speed you are expected to ramp up on. You constantly have to show/quantify your value and that can be very arduous. If you are good at playing that game, kudos to you.

Pros

The teams are great. People are there to help you. You are there to learn and grow. Managers are awesome, and you come first. As long as you understand that Amazonians are there to bring customers the best experience possible. oh, and the compensation is not too shabby either.

Cons

Some of their tech seems kind of outdated but it's an excellent opportunity to make it better.
