Pros

Good work-life balance while working on Alexa devices org compared to AWS. Some weeks might work 50-60 hours though (maybe like every 2 months). Compensation is very good.

Cons

Management doesn't care about tech debt. Very unscalable business, every other month are releasing new products that have to be compatible with existing software.

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.
