      Pros

      The only thing I love about Amazon is they have amazing free training courses for employees. There are tons of learning resources, many technical broadcast videos. Great learning experience for me.

      Cons

      Horrible micro management. I have been with 2 teams and all managers are extremely bad. I've been in the tech industry with many years of experience and I never had any bad experience with managers until I joined Amazon. This is 100% true

      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.
