Pros

the pay is ok, but you are treated like crap. there is favoritism no matter what.

Cons

favoritism. leadership is not positive. reviews are not done properly you get told youre going to get written up for behavioral issues for using personal time in the morning, rather than in the evening. they dont actually know how hard you bust your ass, and their computers dont calculate rates correctly. you get treated like a child, and that you are their pet. they threaten you with your job in different situations

Pros

Dynamic and fun place to work in Luxembourg. Being a pan European site, the challenges you face will definitely keep you on your toes. However, the work needed is quite geared toward specialists so difficult for greener crowds to pass the high hiring bar.

Cons

The main downside of working for Amazon EU Sarl is the actual city of Luxembourg. It is fine if you are married with children; however, if you are single, it is quite a dead city (after 5:00PM, stores start to close and streets start to get empty.

Pros

It has some of the best people doing awesome things everyday and pushing the limits of what is possible, the get-it-done atmosphere is greatly appreciated over that of stodgy old corporate cultures

Cons

The company prides itself on being frugal, which is great if you are a stock holder (which I am) but less than optimal when you are an employee. However in the last few months they have begun moving employees to a new campus and filling their buckets with nice perks.
