Pros

Audible has some of the smartest kindest people working there, and HR does a lot to keep employees happy. The work is interesting , and you are operating in a industry that is growing, which is very exciting

Cons

The past couple of years have brought tremendous change at Audible, and the management team has frequently changed. You get the sense that the C-suite is highly political and dramatic and don't like each other much. This results in unstable working conditions for individual contributors, folks burning out, and project priorities changing so frequently everyone forgets what you were working towards, to begin with. If you keep your head above water it's not too bad, but something to think about.
