Pros

Signing bonus covering the first two years

Cons

The longer you stay at Amazon the less your base pay grows assuming the vesting stock over time will make up the difference, you need to get promoted or into a higher paid job code at 2 years and routinely sell stock to remain liquid with base pay stagnation.

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.
