Pros

Amazon treats you like an adult and you are trusted to do your job and given the freedom to take it as far as you want. The playing field feels more level with processes like sharing docs in meetings in lieu of powerpoint and backing all ideas up with data and experimentation.

Cons

You get the responsibility you ask for and at first this can feel overwhelming and stressful. Since we are doing new things all the time you will deal with a lot of ambiguity and navigate processes that don't feel like a large, more mature organization.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
