Pros

Customer obsession and working backwards is at the heart of how innovation happens at Amazon/AWS. There is a lot of tolerance to try out new things and it is ok to find later that similar stuff exists with other departments in Amazon.

Cons

Processes and RACI are difficult to establish. Bias for action often trumps the need for discipline/structure.

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.
