Pros

You'll gain valuable skills, meet intelligent and hard-working coworkers and will be well compensated for your time.

Cons

The work life balance is non-existent and you'll constantly be in a stressful or cut-throat environment. While the pros are there, I don't recommend staying at Amazon for a long period of time without expecting health repercussions of handling incredibly high stress for long periods of time.

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.
