Pros

Working at Amazon is hard. It's killer resume fodder, and you really get to dig into and own the systems you touch. You're more hands-on than most other companies, and the culture reflects it.

Cons

See above. It's super cutthroat here.

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.
