Pros

Work with very smart people Tons of resources Large scale problems to solve

Cons

Management as a skill isn't cultivated or much valued Directors and above too often lack engineering skills and ability to manage tech well Tyranny of the xls--lots of decisions affecting employee experience are made to save Amazon costs but make working there harder, like ceiling annual 401k contributions below federal limits so Amazon can save money on the plan
