Pros

Amazon offers lots of autonomy, flexibility in schedule and working from home. Also, you can bring your dog to work.

Cons

There is a lot of pressure to get results, no matter what. Data is everything - which is ok, but the data must be rational and reasonable. Some groups work harder than others, but don't expect a lot of help from your teammates or boss - you need to perform on your own.

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.
