Pros

Amazon has an impressive reception for its employees, making us feel part of the company very fast and giving to the new hires a complete organized and full of information Embark. Managers and colleagues have a great sense of team and responsibility which highlights even more the ownership sense. Total compensation are very fair, allowing a great life quality in and outside the work. Finally, challenges has no ends, allowing the employees to grown their career each day. So I would say that it makes a perfect balance between life quality with fair compensations, great challenges and friendly teams.

Cons

For whose that prefer working from home, the company has a very flexible mixed approach between home and office, but visits to the office are always a big incentive and for some teams required, which for me is great but not for everyone.

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.
