Pros

Amazon has big ideas and always has new ones in the pipeline. It's an amazing place to work if you're not shy because you never know if the guy you just chatted up will offer you a position on a secret project. Compensation is competitive and the work is fun. You write your own destiny here..and there is plenty of support for those that do!

Cons

It's a huge company which allows one to become easily overwhelmed. It is not very consistent between buildings (or even teams) when it comes to ammenities or perks. It's very easy to become 'stuck' if you do not fit the mold of the 'Leadership Principles'

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.
