Amazon- endless frustration and stress

Pros

Great pay and benefits. Relative security.

Cons

Extreme amount of stress and hours. Very little recognition for a job well done or for hours and effort required to do job. Standards are so high that perfection is required- mistakes are not easily forgiven. Micro-managment on steroids.
