Pros

- Employee friendly policies ( 'Putting employees first' is what I could observe from most of Amazon's policies) - Challenging Environment ( Strong peer group & great leadership) - World class Benefits - Innovation driven - Complete Autonomy on your assignments - Very flexible (WFH, flexible work hours) - Lateral movements within the company (Move anywhere and do what you like to do)

Cons

- If you are an outsider, check your job levels before joining. Amazon tries to bring you down one level. - You will take time settle down if you are an outsider (lot of peculiar aspects of amazon culture)

Pros

A lot to learn, money is good, and Seattle is a beautiful place to live.

Cons

Work life balance. If you have children this is not a company for you. An example of the child-like culture is they have a "bring your parents to work day". My family was having medical issues and management wouldn't budge on working with me and my schedule. In fact, they pushed me harder for deliverables despite the fact I had issues at home that were obviously a priority. Ultimately you will be made to feel you should choose between family and the job. I also found that due to the culture mindset a lot of other companies do not like or shy away from hiring people from Amazon. So while Amazon might seem sexy short term, long term, maybe not so much.

Pros

Amazon has been a great company to work for and has allowed me the flexibility to try new jobs and explore my career goals.

Cons

It is easy to get excited and caught up in the work that we do, which leads to working more than I should.
