Pros

This is the most innovative environments I have ever been in. When choosing between Amazon and another tech company a few years back there was some bad press out about the company. This bad press actually motivated me to accept the offer at Amazon. To me this bad press was intriguing. Since working here I have found that the bad press i had read was not at all true for me. I always feel empowered by my team and fulfilled by my work.

Cons

There is a lot of ambiguity and the environment is fast. If you are a person that likes to know exactly what they are going to do everyday and needs firm structure and guidance, you will not like it here. Amazonians are encouraged to think for themselves and not be babysat.

Pros

Amazon's Leadership Principles (e.g., Customer Obsession) are real, not some marketing/PR stuff made just to look good. Unlike some other companies, I've seen top leaders use the Leadership Principles to make decisions. We also use them for hiring, promotion, and general feedback.

Cons

I've seen a lot of variability between teams. My team is amazing and I know many other happy employees, but I've also seen a few toxic groups. Be sure to ask a lot of questions and try to get a feel for who you will be working with.
