Pros

The company is motivated to not only build, but also really market their products. Level doesn't stand in the way of being able to contribute. I love my team and the products we have built together. Local leadership is smart and demanding in a good way. At the very top Jeff is a great business leader and it is motivating to work for a company with that level of performance.

Cons

Not a lot of perks like free food compared to other Si valley companies. Titles tend to be low compared to other companies and promotions beyond a certain level are very difficult. Raises are very small, but offset by the stock performance.

Pros

The team is welcoming and supportive, with designers across visual, motion, and sound design (rare for Amazon) However, opportunities to collaborate across teams are relatively limited.

Cons

Decision-making can take time due to multiple stakeholder reviews. Balancing design quality with business constraints can be challenging. Job security has become less predictable in recent years.
