Pros
Once RSU's vest, compensation is good. They will teach you Lean and Six Sigma skills. You have opportunities to make changes with frugal limitations.
Cons
No work life balance. You work at Amazon, it is your life. Not enough managers to handle all the issues. Software developers in different parts of the country will make changes that shut down warehouse systems which puts customer orders at risk. Software/system infracture is outdated and is not useful. No suppport from SME's in how to use the system. Basically it is all trial and error. 90% or more of the managers dislike their job and are just waiting for their RSU's to vest before they quit. Transportation, engineering, software, and operations have no communication.
