Pros

Lots of things to learn if you wish (but nobdoy is there to teach you). Nice view from Beijing office.

Cons

1. Always remeber retail and tech are completely different at Amazon (in all kinds of terms) 2.If you want to gain some experience in E-commerce (in Chinese market), don't come here. the operation at Amazon is completely different from its local competitors. 3. Not many talented colleauges, most of them are thiry-some having a 5-6 year old kid and just wanting to get things done.

Pros

Working with amazing people, cutting edge technology, customers love the company. Great place to develop yourself with many promotion options as the company keeps on growing.

Cons

Work-life balance is not great, communication between department and finding the right person to talk with can be challenging as the company has more than 100K employees. Expectations are very high so you need to be able to handle pressure when things don’t go as planned
