Pros

* Good RSU benefits; * People are usually nice (bare minimum, but I was requested to provide an answer longer than five words)

Cons

The work environment is a mixture of massive business, suboptimal BI tools, non-existing processes and conflicting objectives; all paired with short deadlines and expectation of high quality deliverables. Since the company is large and corporate/administrative processes doesn't scale efficiently, it's up to the worker to fill this gap with his own life. For Amazon, business as usual; for the employee it's the road for burnout. 'Amazon, in every box, a tear'

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.
