Pros

Lots of smart people here. Good working environment, Good benefits Lots of things to learn.

Cons

The culture of Amazon is very bad. People are treat as a tool not a person. Whether you can success or not depends on your manager. If your manager is not good and not support you, and then you will be put on the PIP, fired and then blacklisted. Don't forget the famous amazon PIP process. Even L8 will be piped! HR? They will not help you...

Pros

Good pay Clean facilities Safe environment

Cons

Even though I had a bachelor's, I was never considered for management position. Hopefully you live nearby or tolls across the bridge will kill your income.

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.
