Pros

Amazing culture and values. Employees are given autonomy and responsibility quickly with lots of opportunity to advance soley based on your merits and not time at the company or seniority. The team works hard, has fun, and makes a difference.

Cons

At times can be hard to navigate given how much autonomy teams have. You will be given more work until you find your work/life harmony.

Pros

I work with brilliant driven individuals all over the world to solve challenging interesting problems. Internal transfers to other roles and other organizations are encouraged.

Cons

Amazon will work you as much as you allow. Everyone has 100 things to do each week and time to do 20 of them. Being able to prioritize and enforce your boundaries is critical to not burning out.

Pros

1. Tremendous growth opportunities as company is on growth path 2. If someone wants to learn, try out new things then this is the company you want to work with. It is not the place where you can get away without performing 3. Stringent selection process keep the quality of employees high which in turn brings great work culture 4. Very healthy relocation package is offered for new joiner 5. Excellent transportation benefits in Seattle area

Cons

401K plan is very weak. Company matches only up to 2% of contributions for 4% what you pay. Company contribution has huge vesting period of 3 years. It is one of the poorest plan I have seen around
