Pros

Exciting products to work on, lot of flexibility to try different things. Management generally has the right intentions

Cons

Excess hiring in the last 2-3 years has created too many people for the number of products shipped. Management has become more wary of trying new ideas in current economic environment. Long timers get massively dinged in compensation. New hires easily make 50% more than long tenured employees in equivalent position

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.
