      Pros

      Very fast moving culture which requires SDEs to keep moving and innovating long term solution. As an SDE, Amazon has a lot of room for growth and learning.

      Cons

      Very little focus on quality. In fast moving culture, major focus is to get the feature of the door which requires shortcuts in the architecture. Long term architecture is identified and neve implemented.

      Pros

      Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

      Cons

      You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
