Pros

1) Being an Amazon subsidiary is an advantage. 2) Stock options 3) Employee benefits like event tickets, sports leagues, free audible membership etc

Cons

1) Would have been better if it was located in NYC instead of Newark 2) YoY salary raise is very less 3) A good % of the pay is in stocks, which is a bit of a risk
