      I couldn't imagine working anywhere else

      Pros

      Customer focus, everyone being smarter than me, the leadership principles. There are a ton of benefits of working at amazon, and I couldn't imagine working somewhere else.

      Cons

      Fast paced environment - there's never enough time to get everything done. You have to make hard tradeoffs.

      Most fun I've had at a job in years

      Pros

      I own the customer experience for a category and I can honestly say that this is the most fun I've had professionally in my 20 years of working. The work is challenging, but I wouldn't have it any other way...I also make a habit of telling people on my team that the path to success at Amazon isn't by working crazy hours, it is getting a lot done in the hours that you do work. I've also grown more professionally in the past 4 years than I did in the previous 16.

      Cons

      Remote working isn't too effective in my organization. I would much prefer to work from home, or work from Colorado, but it wouldn't be very effective in my current organization doing so.

      Awesome Place to work at

      Pros

      Great People, Good Salary, Everyday is filled with challenges and learning. I joined Amazon a year back from an another giant, and trust me I believe Amazon has very clear goals than my previous employer.

      Cons

      Nothing significant as such but due to transfer friendly policies you would see lot of people moving from your team and joining your team. Also expect lot of manager changes.
