Pros

Senior management (aka Jeff Bezo and team) provides really amazing new ideas and cool stuff for the future. They like to develop in-house tool so all systems and tools are continuously evolving and employees are encouraged to be creative and propose improvement. I think it provides a ground to keep improve our skills and thinking.

Cons

The company allows inexperience managers to put together teams. I don't really think my managers are people managers who inspire, encourage, and build their staff. Rather, they're more like project managers and they only want to see the results of what they asked you to do.

Pros

You have a lot of agency. If you can justify why something needs to happen and how much it will cost to make it happen you can affect change at the company.

Cons

Bit of a problem with putting too much emphasis on seniority.
