Business Outlook
Pros
As opposed to people's perceptions, Amazon corporate culture and managers respect your family and personal needs. I was never asked or expected to work outside my scheduled work hours. Regarding opportunities to take ownership, Amazon has so many projects and initiatives going on that managers will gladly let you take the lead and own one.
Cons
Amazon corporate recruits straight from college, with no prior work experience. As a result, many employees have only worked at Amazon. This becomes problematic when proposing to try workflows, tools or frameworks that are not used at Amazon.
