Pros

Pay is ok, discount on prime items.

Cons

Long hours with the expectation that you will almost spend the whole week at work. No respect for L4-5 positions as they are pretty much treated as expendable salaried associates. Unrealistic expectations and ever changing goals from promotion hungry leadership who is quick to blame the AM for any shortcomings in their site. Associates having more power than management while you get told to enforce rules that you can’t really enforce. Asinine stuff.

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.
