Pros
Good to have Amazon on your resume. Good place as a step stone for your next career move. Don't stay here for too long to get your personal life ruined.
Cons
- Terrible managers who were incapable of making projects succeed and then found innocent hard working engineers to blame and put them in the Performance Improvement Plan. - Amazon made some media announcement that they would abandon the old stack racking system and use some new means to make a better workplace. They are just lying. They still do it secretly. Not a company you can trust at all. - Insane oncall schedule but no compensation. You might get punished if anything went wrong during your unpaid/uncompensated oncall. - Managers are creating a culture of competition instead of cooperation within team. - Notorious RSU vesting schedule. - 401K match is a joke. If you leave the company with 3 years, they take the match back.
