* Chance to work on multiple technologies * Open forum to connect with L7 * L7 leader is effective but does not do anything substantial

Cons

* Culture Toxic * Team doesnt support learning * Expectation you should know each and everything in terms of process at amazon even when you are joining amazon for 1st time * People are rude and willing to steal credit inorder to get promoted * Managers support L5's to steal credits of L4 engineers in order to promote those L5 engineers * Religion based people were deliberately being hired in the team

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.
