Pros

Amazon provides good environment for learning and improving your skills. You get to work with a lot of amazing co-workers. The environment is fast-paced and the pay is good.

Cons

Easy to burn out if you aren't careful. You need to learn to push back on unreasonable requirements and timelines. Focus on key deliverables and avoid taking on more things than you can handle.

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.
