Pros

Work from home during the pandemic was great, I think it was shocking to many how much free time they had when not having to be in office. Amazon is great on the resume. When it’s good it’s good

Cons

Your manager makes or breaks your experience and many times ends your employment basically on nothing. I had mostly good managers but some horrible ones. I left on my own but with these lay offs lingering I think leaving early was a smart move.

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.
