Cons

1. No work-life balance 2. Amazon being such a big company, cannot call its culture to be startup. Processes in Amazon are most of the times redundant. 3. On-Call schedule 4. Frugality in everything 5. No consideration to employees 6. Meaningless leadership principles. 7. favoritism 8. No fixed roadmap (atleast this was the case with our team) 9. Any lateral employee will find the Amazon work culture a little harsh on the employees 10. Weekends are usually spent just preparing for the hectic weekdays
