Pros

Interesting, challenging work, amazing colleagues, and the chance to learn software development at scale

Cons

I had competing offers between Audible & Blackrock, and decided on Audible, though the pay-band was much lower, because I was told by my recruiter that hybrid work was here to stay. I wanted work life balance, since I have two small children who my wife and I don't send to daycare because we desperately want to spend the next few years with them before they head to school. I was lied to, I have watched other benefits being rapidly cut over the last year. Whatever this company was before Amazon, it is no longer that. The culture has become efficiency, frugality, and exploitation.

Pros

Free lunch, cool office, good perks

Cons

Morale here seems incredibly low, especially after the layoffs in Jan 2024. It doesn’t seem like anyone has a positive outlook or is excited about work.
