Pros

The team work culture is excellent, some team mate go out of their way to make sure you understand and solve your issues promptly. Also, practicing their 14 principles shapes the way you think about work and develops a strong working culture within you.

Cons

Amazon works in small teams, and they have many teams. Your luck depends on that, you can get a narcissistic manager obsessing with micromanaging you. No real ownership although they claim it, you get micromanaged. Also, no path for career growth outside of Amazon's bubble

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.
