      Pros

      Colleague friendships Busy Environment Dynamic Recognised Brand Always something new happening Shares which makes comp good

      Cons

      Very oppressive work environment not only due to the volume of work but the continuous aggressive performance bar You will never be promoted in Amazon but you will be expected to take on more and deliver more, do a larger job of increased responsibility and scope but not get compensated , recognised or promoted Very Senior leaders who are supposed to be role models speak atrociously to more junior members of staff on open forums like conference calls to the point people are afraid to speak up or ever voice an opinion or objection Very poor benefits overall

      Love it

      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      We've all heard the stories of people crying at their desks, but I've yet to meet anyone at Amazon that has experienced anything of the sort. I love it. It's challenging, but I've been rewarded. I work an adjusted schedule that gets me home in time to enjoy after school activities with my kids. Like any large corporation Amazon has guiding principles, but in Amazon's case these are much more deeply ingrained than any company I've worked at before (including other A list tech companies). Read them. That being said, it will always come down to the team you're on. I happen to be on an amazing one, so perhaps there are worse out there. While I'm certainly not the guy that would win the lottery and keep going to work, I actually look forward to heading in most days. There are also plenty of opportunities to move amongst teams at Amazon.

      Cons

      You will work hard, but it's balanced with fun, and it'll most often be your own choice as you're excited about the amazing things we can do for customers. The frugality can be an issue. Amazon isn't the place if you're looking for free massages and chef cooked meals, but that frugality can also be frustrating when more robust 3P software solutions would make your work easier.
