Pros

Myriad of teams available at AWS that vary in "speed" and complexity. This allows an employee to find and move between teams to find something compatible with their own career goals and team interests. For most teams, work-life balance is flexible even if co-workers won't necessarily exercise that freedom

Cons

Average tenure here is short, and with AWS constantly growing, there are some growing pains related to orgs and teams losing generational knowledge regarding their services. As a new employee there is lots of AWS specific knowledge to learn that can often be overwhelming. Expect to be somewhat clueless for the first six months.

Pros

Excellent pay/benefits, Safety first mindset, flexible scheduling, fantastic training program, phenomenal team support, convenient locations. Plenty of pathways for career advancement and full support for self promotion. Culture is fantastic. You really can be yourself and make many new friends fast. Teamwork is outstanding. Everyone is always willing to help.

Cons

Growing so fast that it's hard to keep the same manager. I've had four managers in two months. Constantly have to adapt to new procedures and changes and working locations. Always in a state of flux. Standards keep changing all the time
