Amazon - Best Company to Start Your Career

Program manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Independence, you learn how to deal with ambiguity, there are endless opportunities for self-development, strong emphasis on leadership principles, focus on objective data can make any employee regardless of level be heard, great overall compensation

Cons

Managers are solely hired based on IC performance (lack leadership skills), the company has little to no interest in employee well-being, very limited contributions to society, very hierarchical (escalations can turn over well-planned roadmaps), CEO does not understand the balance between directing teams towards problems and making them sick and churn from stressful escalations

Worst company Ever - workaholics

Program manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good Salary, all expenses paid, lots of interesting work, signing on bonus and invested stocks after 1 year

Cons

This list at no end, it’s the worst Company I have ever worked in. No work life balance, long days, lots of traveling. Every one has about the work load of about 5 people. The business has no structure, procedure or processes , like most conventional companies. So everyone has to be able to work in chaos. I have found management to be raciest (in the UK). This is a company that simply do not care about people, only profits.

AWS - Hard work, freedom to shine

Program manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

1) Risk taking and new ideas are strongly encouraged. 2) Treated like an adult, freedom to do you job as you know how, not micro-managed. You are given reins to excel. 3) Stock incentives and sign-on bonuses fantastic (but salary only so-so) 4) Everyone here is outstanding -- helpful, engaged, whip smart. You will think to yourself "How did they let me in here?" 5) Very strong focus on customers and making their businesses better. It is a winning formula, as evidenced by tremendous growth of AWS. 6) Strong culture of the Leadership Principles (Google it). They are lived every day. If you want to win a debate/discussion with other employees, remind them how their position is not in keeping with a specific LP. Works almost every time. 7) Huge career opportunities. AWS is growing so fast, we have hundreds of openings. Moving around is supported.

Cons

1) Salary is so-so. At some point you will max out (but at least for me, the stock incentives and sign-on bonuses -- think multiples of a year's salary -- more than make up for not getting an extra 5-10% in the paycheck). 2) You will work hard, very hard. You can take PTO and vacations, but you have to protect them and not get caught in a trap of 24x7. If you remind them you need a break, managers will support you being away. 3) All your friends will ask you for discounts on Amazon goods. Little do they know employees barely get any.
