Pros

Caveat: I joined a new team out of uni so had a lot of self-learning to do but that also gave me the opportunity to take on more responsibility * Given lots of opportunities and room to grow * Pretty good working culture overall * It really is what you make of it

Cons

* Amazon internal tech stack is it's own beast * Perks are sh!t compared to other big tech, go figure * Culture can be intense with deadlines * Some not so smart people who have found their way in as well
