Details

Amazon.com Software Development Engineer:   (Current Employee)

Pros

Lots of Work, You will get Plenty of stuff to Learn, So-So benefits, Management is not good, however the engineers are very smart.

Cons

Zero Work-Life Balance, You will not have time for anything else besides Work. Learn skills and move onto something else.

Advice to Senior Management

Treat employees well, dont burn them out. Management just wants to treat employees as slave-labour, and dumps bunch of experimental work on them.
