Excellent place to work and learn in a fast paced environment. Colleagues are top notch, and leaders are driven. Process driven company that enables structure and discipline in every aspect of work- like project execution, meetings etc. A well envisioned and stable product roadmap

Cons

Hardware is typically hectic from work-life perspective and that is no different at amazon.

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.
