Pros

You can learn how to lead a team and be good with handling completely chaotic situations. The people you work with will become family. Even if short lived.

Cons

Amazon has gone back to their old standards of hiring and promoting but worse. You can't be hired as a supervisor of the street except in very rare circumstances. Never once at my building. keeping it internal and hoping employees work less than 1-2 years max. Thier strategy was to have always fresh new ideas. Instead of internal though you can only promote out of your building with this new program. It causes problems either way because the associates don't have consistent leaders. One day you walk in and have a new manager who has to fumble through the job without proper training.

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.
