Pros

+ Its an Amazon company provides you with experience of using Amazon tools & cloud computing. + Higher starting salary and better RSU signing bonus than Amazon for most people + Free food and booze + Transferring to Amazon is easy and you keep your RSUs. Amazon jobs in NYC, Jersey City & Seattle

Cons

- From the top, its a book publishing company first, technology is an after thought - Workplace culture is full of anxiety & stress - Unrealistic expectations of employees from management, only aggressive personalities make it long term - Promotions are rare, based on drinking koolaid and not on developing good software. Getting to Senior engineer takes more years compaired to Amazon.

Pros

Free catered lunch every day. Mondays from a local restaurant. Fridays Salad day. Happy hour on Fridays. Lunch-out one day a week. Used to be an Amazon Money Cow.

Cons

Way too many bosses. The chain of command is way too long. No clear path to improve on the current product.
