      Pros

      Challenging problems from real world combined with Amazon scale makes most scalable solutions obsolete in few years. Pace of development is fast. Each employee is a leader and an owner. Its great to be among people who are constantly improving things because they want to and not because they are asked to.

      Cons

      Oncall support can be bad. Work life balance, growth, etc - A lot depends on your manager. I am lucky to have a good manager but not everyone is.

      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.
