Pros

- Free lunch - Weekly happy hour - Gym/commuting reimbursement - Amazon RSU - Some really smart and helpful people but it's hard to seek them out in a very political culture

Cons

- Lack of visionary product leaders - High turnover - Constant change in strategy from upper management - Lack of transparency given the hierarchal org structure - HR is not to be trusted with any concerns or bullying you might experience - No clear career path and very random/inconsistent promotions based on relationships rather than metrics and output - Internal transfer policy can be improved, Google "Amazon employee suicide"

Pros

Audible is an Amazon company. I think as a whole, this company attracts people who are kind and fun spirited. Some who come from other big tech companies may think us as nerdy or quiet but I think it’s the lack of toxic compatibility that you tend to see at those other companies. I purely enjoy working with my colleagues and the work that I do, which I can hardly say about the other big tech companies I worked at. Free lunch and commuter/parking benefit

Cons

5-day RTO. The headquarter is in Newark, NJ. The commute can be hard for some.
