Pros

1. Excellent Leadership Principles. 2. Really suitable environment for a entrepreneurial mindset. 3. Lot of companies where I worked in the past talks about the culture of the company, but no one follows. Amazon does take culture seriously.

Cons

1. From outside Amazon looks like a Flat organization. But once you entered into it you will really see there is lot of ladders adding on top of you. 2. Constant organizational changes. 3. I felt like my manager is not ready to manage the L6 TPM's. He just moved from Amazon to AWS, I think there is different management styles btwn Amazon FC/Fresh to AWS. 4. Micro Management, again it depends on which team you're at.

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.
