Pros

This role has fixed working hours, so you don't need to work extra hours The pay is good, and work-life balance is mostly good

Cons

The managers are toxic. They find a person to blame for not being able to meet their own targets and put that person into a coaching plan followed by lay off mostly. Despite the heavy focus on leadership principles, most of the employees fail to meet even a single leadership principle. The bar for hiring has been very low for past 2-3 years, and anyone can get into Amazon.

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.
