      Pros

      - Surrounded by lots of great engineers. - Strong culture of building quality products. - Lots of growth opportunities and ability to move around within company. - Leadership Principles are not hollow words by upper management but are practiced every day at all levels.

      Cons

      Many of the developer tools for internal services are out of date. Amazon can be slow to adopt industry standards/best practices where it would be beneficial to do so.

      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.
