Pros

If you are an established seller you can negotiate good pay. The first two years with guaranteed cash is great.

Cons

The Cloud Sales Center has been the outlier of the organization. It feels like the only people who take it seriously are the leaders within. If you are looking to advance your career internally at AWS the CSC is not the place to do it. In the past few years promotions has slowed as have the opportunities for sellers to advance into roles outside the CSC. It is a dumping ground for accounts that others don't want. And when they do, they generally can take them.

Pros

Employees raise the bar; you would work with brilliant people who consistently go the extra mile to drive growth and impact. Company culture is very important to succeed.

Cons

Inexistent work life balance, high level of demand constantly, salaries are not bad, but they remain stuck for a long time, important to negotiate well at entry.
