Pros

I enjoy working at Amazon, it's fast paced and we deliver results. I know there's a lot of controversy, but I personally enjoy my team and the level of ownership ICs have. We prioritize the customer at every step of the way.

Cons

The environment is ambiguous. So it may not be ideal for someone who's not a self starter and able to seek to understand and solve problems on their own. The promotion process is complicated and not based on direct work performance or longevity in the role. You may exceed expectations YoY and still take forever to see a promotion through.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
