Pros

Met some great co-workers, and worked on some interesting programs.

Cons

• The epic success of the Fire phone (and the fact that they want to make more phones) • Flying 14 hours to China in economy class • Seattle doesn't understand the term "feature creep" • They make the same mistakes time and time again • The continuous re-orgs and management shifts • Manager's questioning your every move and/or decision • Politics, politics, politics • Promotions are near impossible • Work/life balance sucks

Pros

The team is welcoming and supportive, with designers across visual, motion, and sound design (rare for Amazon) However, opportunities to collaborate across teams are relatively limited.

Cons

Decision-making can take time due to multiple stakeholder reviews. Balancing design quality with business constraints can be challenging. Job security has become less predictable in recent years.
