Pros

High pay, large reach, many resources

Cons

Leadership-principles permeate every corner of the business. Toxic behavior is packaged in corp-speech. Play along or leave

Good place to start, not to stay

Pros

AWS has the mentality we hire and develop the best. And that's exactly it, they develop you for the first two years and then, they either find a way to make you leave or you choose to leave yourself.

Cons

It's not a place where hard work is rewarded, the opposite, the harder you work the more they request from you as if granted. And once you get your promotion its salary tais that follows is so small(only up to 10%) which doesn't fit with all the extra job requirements.
