Pros

The benefits for employees working at Amazon are pretty decent. Insurance and resources for employees are solid. The base pay is also good and there are lots of opportunities within Amazon.

Cons

Notorious for treating employees like robots. Unfortunate because everyone in Amazon I've met is really cool but the system is designed where people are not treated like human beings. The promotion system is pretty rigorous and you need a lot of experience to move up internally. Amazon expects you to go above and beyond for your role and even more so for promotions. They will work you like a dog and puts a lot on your plate. Focuses too much on saving money at the expense of its people.

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.
