Pros

The coworkers will go above and beyond always. They are great people.

Cons

1. Leadership: leaders came over from another Amazon subsidiary, Shopbop. The leadership team members now are bullies. They do not listen to data or employees, despite these employees having many years of successes and experience at the company. They also negatively talk about employees to other employees. 2. Benefits & pay: majority of employees’ salaries were dropped on average 30% in 2025. Benefits changed as well and are worse than Zappos benefits but cost more. 3. Perks: starting in 2025, Zappos no longer has events or parties and most fun things in the office were removed. 4. Job security: layoffs can happen anytime. No severance.

Pros

Good work life balance. Less political

Cons

Since Scott took over as the CEO, his only way to make an impression at Amazon has been to layoff people. He has laid off 50% of the workforce in his 2 years as a CEO.
