Pros

Good compensation, honestly that is it!

Cons

A lot of corporate politics and no value for employees or teams. The culture among teammates is toxic, everyone is trying to step over each other's work, unnecessarily delaying feature launch by means of PR comments, and unnecessary changes just to portray the poor performance of the feature owner. I am a victim of racism and biasing, I reported but no actions were taken. In fact, at Amazon, every manager needs to cut off 1 person from their team every year in the name of talent refresh. My manager couldn't cut anyone from the existing teammates as they were important to her, so she decided to do a workaround, she hired me just to fire me after 5 months. She deliberately evaluated my performance wrong on papers to present that as the reason for termination. No actions were taken after reporting the actual evaluation and how she mistreated me with these evaluations.

Pros

Toxic management will teach you how not to be like them.

Cons

Toxic management will give you mental illness. HR leaks your HR issue report to the management.

Pros

Great career growth and the potential to get your life on a great track if you avoid people.

Cons

Its like high school all over again. Mean girls run the office and use gossip as a way to self promote themselves and feel more important than they really are
