Pros

* Great people to work with—every day you learn from someone something new; you never work alone, lunch conversations are a true pleasure * Never-ending challenges and new problems to resolve—if you like being challenged, work with passion, or if you are full of new ideas and want to make a difference and help other people make the difference, this is the place * Leadership Principles are actually alive—they are not some mission statement, written in an obscure document, they are help you in how you make decisions, how you negotiate, work and manage your career * Plenty of food options—burritos, hamburgers, regular and fancy sandwiches and rolls, Thai, Japanese, French, Indian, fish and chips, 'super-food', market on Thursdays, and many many more, all in up to 6 minutes walk

Cons

* Location—Ballsbridge, 11 min walk from Green Luas at best, very few buses from the South Dublin, bad traffic a norm, parking scarce, cycling dangerous as usual (Donnybrook); top location, bottom access

Pros

It's always day 1. There are so many moving parts, new launches, new products, new services and everyone is excited to be part of it.

Cons

Being based in Europe but part of a global team sometimes is a challenge because there are too many stakeholders who want to make decisions.

Pros

Amazon is the most innovative and fast paced company I have ever worked for. Amazon is changing the world and is continually pushing the boundaries of what is possible. Only the best are hired to work for Amazon, and the high caliber performance of colleagues is noticeable. Work Life balance is nothing like the horror stories of the NYT article, however it varies team to team. The South Lake Union campus is fantastic and makes for a great place to work. Dog friendly buildings and co-workers is a great stress reliever.

Cons

Amazon's culture and high expectations are not for everyone. Don't expect you hand to be held or shown what to do. Health and retirement benefits are good, but not exceptional. Much of this is compensated through signing bonuses and restricted stock units.
