Pros

Great work, Great learning opportunities, Smart people to work with. Great impact overall of the work that you do, Pay and other benefits are just icing on the top of this.

Cons

In 2019, I joined Amazon and had the opportunity to work with a series of managers. Over time, there were changes in leadership, and I navigated through various team dynamics. With the guidance of a senior engineer, I transitioned to a new team to explore fresh opportunities within the company. Though the experience was challenging at times, it provided valuable lessons and contributed to my ongoing professional development.

Pros

* Very good salary (very good) * Good work depending on team. End to end ownership which is not given in other company. Very good company to start career with.

Cons

* Work life balance will take a hit. No one will ask you to work extra hours but there will push you to give such deadlines. * Toxic culture. They say they care but they don't. With the forced Return to office, employees are treated badly. Irrespective of personal situation, you will be forced to come to office with zero empathy.
