Pros

Cool products, more emphasis on innovation than "normal" Amazon. Very long hours but I'm usually willing to stay, pretty exciting to work on new projects.

Cons

Not much company culture except occasional bonding events. A lot of people leaving after fire phone launch. Evil director.

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.
