Business Outlook
Pros
- Amazing experience to witness the scale at which Amazon works - Leadership principles are not just on the paper, you live them day in day out - Dynamic, fast paced and innovative
Cons
- Some teams have become beauraucratic, which is unlike Amazon's Day1 culture - golden handcuffs - for the hard work you did in the past 6 months, you are given future compensation in the next 2-3 years, so you have to stick along with the company for longer - vesting every 6 months is a drag - frugality means no free lunches or freebies.
