      Where Big Things Happen Fast - Anonymous employee Amazon Web Services Employee Review

      Pros

      Like the Cloud, AWS is where you if you want to make big things happen fast. Management cuts any strings and you are owner and inventor of your (& your team's) designs. Truly customer focused (ie "obsessed") and is not afraid to fail to get it right in the long run.

      Cons

      I had been warned about the lack of work/life balance. Well, that is true to me, but, so far, it is not b/c of AWS; it is b/c of me. I am working on that.

      Pros

      Ambitious projects if you're in the right team. Typically great team-mates. Don't believe the memes, the ppl are not back stabbing jerks but are overall genuinely nice. Not constrained by budgets when building cool things. Tools while sometimes clunky are powerful.

      Cons

      Schizophrenic lack of focus, entire teams get split, merged and upended multiple times a quarter. Some product managers are disconnected from reality. It didn't use to be the case, the PM-Ts were previously top notch. You're pushed to vibe code everything. Established products with loyal customers are getting neglected. Newer VP level leaders don't seem to know what they are doing. Veteran OG VP level leaders are either leaving in droves or seem stressed or checked out.
