Pros
1. Generally talented colleagues with drive to achieve more 2. Very challenging program and very unique problems for you to solve. If you solve it, you will create huge impact worldwide. 3. Data driven culture with availability of data. The level of analysis is extremely thorough and even for program management, you find yourself spending significant amount of times getting and analyzing data for decision making.
Cons
1. Too stringent on flight policy because for long haul, all you get is economy. Sometimes even premium economy is cheaper but you just cannot get it. 2. Very often Amazonians in Seattle expect/request colleagues in Asia to meet them in their Seattle friendly hours. This is inconsiderate. Imagine you have to start meeting them at 5 or 6am in the morning on weekly basis and it is few times a week. 3. There isn’t “perks” for Singapore, not even discount code for amazon.com purchase or amazon products. This is extremely strange.
