Pros

Have heard many bad reputation about Amazon. But my experience was actually good in work life balance and relationship with colleagues.

Cons

Amazon uses their own tools in most cases, so it takes longer time to adapt, but they expect you to perform well in the beginning. If you do well for the first 6 months, Rest would be pretty nice.

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.
