Pros
$$$ - Solid base and sign-on bonus for year 1-2 (but don't ever expect a performance bonus or a base increase over 2.5% -Some incredibly talented people working there (not sure if any left now) -- they base their stock offers on the 30 day trailing average (of the stock's performance)- so keep that in mind when negotiating. That being said, good luck making it the 2+ years to collect
Cons
-Management is there to beat you down and make sure you never get promoted. I've never worked anywhere with a higher turnover rate or lower morale. -Too many levels of red-tape to count. -The mothership (seattle) still controls all the strings and music is less of a priority to amzn than all the other media teams- 'red-headed stepchild

Pros
I have explored new career paths that I never would have imagined possible for myself. I have moved up in the company due to the always positive reinforcement that makes me strive to do better and better.
Cons
There is a lack of communication between departments that hinders new and better processes. Little information is sent out to make everyone aware of changes.
