Pros

The company has a great brand name.

Cons

Run. Don't walk. The partner marketing and sales team needs extreme help. The company needs event planners, not strategic marketing managers. The leadership principles are smoke and mirrors.

Pros

While the pay may be 15-25% higher the market rate, employees are expected to work twice the usual hours and the work-life balance is virtually non-existent

Cons

‘Neo slavery’, zero work-life balance, outdated tools and approaches to marketing, a lack of vision from current leadership, and a negative selection process that favors individuals with cold personalities.

Pros

-When the stock is going up, it's an alright place to work. -Customer obsession is generally real. -People hold themselves accountable. -There's (usually) the ability to move teams/roles. -You'll always have AWS on your resume, making you more marketable.

Cons

-Everyone is just going after the next Level and willing to throw anyone under the bus to get there. -Instead of using feedback to improve, they just get rid of the person giving the feedback. -Your job duties may be X, but they'll put 4X the work on you because they know you won't quit. -The Partner org is basically run by a muppets and an overly-influential divorcee. -There are politics in every company, but AWS takes pride in it's toxicity.
