Pros

Amazon can be a good place to go for experience, especially if you're interested in Process Improvement or Management roles.

There's little reward present for the constant stress from upper leadership. There's a growing demand on AM workload, but they decided to forgo the annual performance-based wage increases indicating stocks were performing so well that the growth would compensate for the decreased wage increase,

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
