Pros
You can work with really smart people Pay is competitive, but weighted on market price which can impact Pride of working for large tech You can rotate to other parts of the company with some internal interviewing Decent Health care and PTO
Cons
Amazon falls in the trap of running fast in the wrong direction Focused too heavily on if you are using AI vs how you are using AI Unrealistic goal timing causes burn out, they lean on "disagree and commit" to get around the fact that timelines are impossible to meet based on roadblocks or resources Promotions are extremely hard and lengthy, you may hit walls Very little company discount offering Constant layoffs lead to challenging morale Even senior level managers say their hands are tied
