Pros

I LOVE working for Amazon! I am apart of the AWS team. Its awesome to work with a highly technical and motivated team. The company culture is like nowhere else. They adhere to the leadership principle and work back from the customer. It's rare to work for a company that puts its customers first and is not concerned with what the market thinks about it.

Cons

The retirement contributions are low compared to the market. The medical coverage is not all that comprehensive compared to other tech companies.

Pros

Cross training that helps for faster growth and more experience.

Cons

Sometimes you gotta hurry and find equipment or pit equipment before others snag them and leave you with the “bad” ones. That take forever to get repaired.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
