Amazon.com – “Interview for SDE-I position”

Pros

Extremely smart people. Very open communication. I probably learnt more there in 1 year than all of my education and past work experiences combined. Casual dress code.
Total ownership of product.

Cons

Total ownership of product. You are responsible for design, development, test, deployment and maintenance. On-call rotations play a bit of havoc with work-life balance, but definitely manageable.

Advice to Senior Management

Allow a bit more freedom to move within the org. Its currently difficult to switch teams due to the rigorous interview process even for current employees. If someone is doing pretty well in their current position, they will do well in their next one at Amazon.
