      Pros

      - Scale! You get to play with big toys, huge traffic. - Lots of decisions made locally. - Being on the right team and having the right manager makes it a fun, safe place to work.

      Cons

      - AMZN business practices vs. personal politics - "Promotion-driven-development" - On-call - "Be frugal" = cheap. Very few perks that other FAANG have for avg salary. Canada underpaid vs. US in similar CoL region. Typical.

      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.
