Pros

You can learn a lot at Amazon and AWS. Very focused on moving things forward, not overly political at the L6 level and there is a lot of structure and resources if you look for them. Very focused on the customer above all else (incl employees).

Cons

High attrition for tech, PIP quotas. Very tactical role in many ways. Comp is hard to understand and is dependent upon the stock price more than elsewhere. It hasn't been good for me 2021-2023. There is a fiscal cliff in year 5.

Pros

- Strong place to be early in your career as it provides valuable training and the brand recognition can create strong future opportunities. - Is great if you’re interested in what you’re doing/selling

Cons

- 5 days in office is not great for work/life balance - If your manager doesn’t like you, good luck! - 401k match is lower than most companies - Base salary compensation is weak compared to other big tech - Leveling/career progression is near impossible due to reorgs leading to a promotion “freeze” - Role can evolve over time in ways that may not align with original job expectations
