Pros

Pay is better than non-tech companies

Cons

Their method of success relies on hard working employees giving up extra time/energy to make sure products launch, rather than investing in the appropriate rescuing to ensure products launch at a high quality bar. Amazon will always ask you to do more than your share, a la the 'Ownership' and 'Deliver Results' LPs.

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.
