Pros

Amazon has the bones of a great company. They truly obsess over customers and are in tune with the customer experience.

Cons

Depending on where you work in the company (who you report to), Amazon's Leadership Principles can be weaponized against you. For example, if you aren't willing to work nights and weekends or over national holidays, certain leaders will tell you "you aren't being Customer Obsessed." Unfortunately, the few HR mechanisms in place are insufficient to deal with toxic leaders, so you may see toxic leaders stay in the company for years.

Pros

Ambitious projects if you're in the right team. Typically great team-mates. Don't believe the memes, the ppl are not back stabbing jerks but are overall genuinely nice. Not constrained by budgets when building cool things. Tools while sometimes clunky are powerful.

Cons

Schizophrenic lack of focus, entire teams get split, merged and upended multiple times a quarter. Some product managers are disconnected from reality. It didn't use to be the case, the PM-Ts were previously top notch. You're pushed to vibe code everything. Established products with loyal customers are getting neglected. Newer VP level leaders don't seem to know what they are doing. Veteran OG VP level leaders are either leaving in droves or seem stressed or checked out.
