Pros

Fast paced, good visibility, innovative products

Cons

Management teams are lacking vision and ability to deep dive into tech stack which is causing new projects to fail miserably in-spite after throwing multiple SDEs at the projects. Too much bureaucracy and process management but the pace of innovation is not up to the mark.

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.
