Pros
Amazon is an incredible place to work and presents a constant set of challenges for me. I see my career growing exponentially while I am here and I feel very privileged to be here. The distributed nature of the Company makes each team I have worked for feel extremely different and this fact also means that individuals have a great deal of power in shaping their teams culture and values.
Cons
The head office is located in Seattle which has caused a significant amount of inequality in this city. Amazon offers employment in many cities around the world but more should be done in Seattle to ensure the city remains relevant to everyone and not just those privileged enough to work for Amazon.
