Pros

Not much - work long hard hours and you're viewed as a number, a disposable robot.

Cons

Several: Amazon has some serious issues to fix regarding ethics, employee treatment, and financial fraud. follow 'at' kvargs on twitter for more detail. Amazon treats its employees poorly - notice of the 14 leadership principles not one has to do with Employees, Ethics, or the Environment and the company is really bad at all three as a result. Its just not important to them.

Pros

- High caliber of employees - Wide range of responsibilities expected of everyone - Good compensation - Fast-paced environment

Cons

- Work overload. No boundaries when it comes to working nights, weekends, and any time you may want to have a non-Amazon thought. This is after 12.5 years in 6 different departments. - Cut Throat - the culture there is intense, and not for the fainthearted. Since there is a strict policy of cutting the bottom 10 percent per year, it creates an environment where managers are _looking_ for someone faltering. - Customer-Not employee-centric.
