Pros

Working with smart people. Many opportunities to learn and grow. Autonomy to work as per your life situation by taking ownership. Amazon is truly customer obsessed and which is evident in every conversation and task. A lot to learn in every aspect of a very successful business.

Cons

Can’t say any yet. It just gets very overwhelming initially when new hires are given tons of training programs to complete in initial months.

Pros

- Strong place to be early in your career as it provides valuable training and the brand recognition can create strong future opportunities. - Is great if you’re interested in what you’re doing/selling

Cons

- 5 days in office is not great for work/life balance - If your manager doesn’t like you, good luck! - 401k match is lower than most companies - Base salary compensation is weak compared to other big tech - Leveling/career progression is near impossible due to reorgs leading to a promotion “freeze” - Role can evolve over time in ways that may not align with original job expectations
