Pros

AWS had a human resources professional reached out to me to provide helpful tips as preparation for my interviews. Inclusion, diversity, and equality are pillars in the hiring process. All Amazonians seem genuinely interested in helping new hires get acclimated with day to day tasks. It seems like there is a lot opportunity for professional development inside Amazon. You are provided with all the resources to success in your role.

Cons

Provide employees that are not married nor have children the option to include parents or siblings access to private health insurance.

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.
