Pros

The work culture is unique. It is hard to come by such a relaxed and flexible work culture in my location. The timings are again flexible. No hard and fast rules in this case. The company food is much better than what i've had else where. Last but not the least, the senior management is extremely approachable and friendly.

Cons

The strength of the company is growing and the number of senior positions are minimum. This results in a very slow growth. And not to mention the company pays a horrendous salary at the entry level.

Pros

Amazon strives to be the most customer centric company and they are already going good in that direction. Software development is rapid, challenging and agile. You learn the best leadership principle and apply into your daily life at work. You learn to develop and design cool stuff

Cons

Learning wise its not too good. They have internal tools and scalabe webservices which you use to build any product. No challenges as such at work. You just build your stuff on existing platforms
