Pros

Moves fast and you get to work with smart people, although that depends on what team and organization you are in. Some are more productive and have a better culture than others.

Cons

Amazon culture as a whole is very focused on pinching pennies now. After Bezos left, there's just no innovation or exciting ventures.

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.
