Pros

I work on the Amazon Retail Website. Get to work on a wide spectrum of issues. Generally receive praise for good work.

Cons

Expected to take part in an oncall cycle, whereby you can be paged to sign in and address an issue 24/7 for two weeks at a time (on most teams).

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.
