Pros

Amazing company with great values that are continually promoted and followed.

Every team is free to operate as it feels can best provide value, meaning your experience at Amazon is completely based on your local leadership. Bad leaders equals bad experience.

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.
