Pros

You get a lot of money for doing a beautiful job. The Location was also really good, in a very lively location, and Amazon has a lot of events keeping our lives interesting.

Cons

Hard to say, but I guess you could say its a difficult job and expectations are high

Pros

Work life balance, and freedom to handle schedule is great. Easy to connect with more experienced co-workers / leaders. Flexible career paths + the ability to tailor career plans to personal interests / desires. Once onboard with Amazon, there are plenty of opportunities make internal moves / work on exciting projects

Cons

Onboarding with such a large company is time consuming / can be stressful. Designing / implementing projects that depend on other team's work can be difficult

Pros

Good people. Okay management. Room for growth. Average salaries and the benefits are not all that bad as well. I dont regret it.

Cons

Cant really think of any cons in particular but i would like to make a point here that amazon needs to revamp its hiring process. Lots of private engineering college trash have gotten in.
