Pros

Most partners want to be part of the AWS engine, so it's easy to get meeting.

Cons

Some employees hide behind the "leadership principles" if they disagree with a colleague I felt like I was in college writing papers with a very specific format that had to be reviewed by 3 peers before I could summit to my boss Meetings were bizarre, when a meeting starting a group would take 10-15 minutes to read the narrative before discussing

Pros

Ambitious projects if you're in the right team. Typically great team-mates. Don't believe the memes, the ppl are not back stabbing jerks but are overall genuinely nice. Not constrained by budgets when building cool things. Tools while sometimes clunky are powerful.

Cons

Schizophrenic lack of focus, entire teams get split, merged and upended multiple times a quarter. Some product managers are disconnected from reality. It didn't use to be the case, the PM-Ts were previously top notch. You're pushed to vibe code everything. Established products with loyal customers are getting neglected. Newer VP level leaders don't seem to know what they are doing. Veteran OG VP level leaders are either leaving in droves or seem stressed or checked out.
