Choice and consideration - Account Manager Amazon Web Services Employee Review

Pros

Aggressive remuneration, great bonuses, good benefits, constant, innovative learning environment, and (moral) recognition in the global IT market.

Cons

Intense workload (!), unhealthy competitiveness, poor communication between departments mainly due to the "two-pizza team" concept, a discourse from the past about the company being super generous and shameless with investments and risks addressed by former employees... but which is currently a fallacy. Leadership principles (14) distorted or often misleading, again pointing to an old cool Amazon that is no longer what it once was.

Pros

- Good pay - Interesting work (team dependent)

Cons

- Politics often gets in the way of good work - Clueless, rudderless leadership just cause problems (can be org dependent) - People are encouraged to only do things that check arbitrary criteria for promotion, trying to do what's best or what's right is discouraged - Not many extra benefits compared to other big tech - Work/life balance can be rough (team dependent)
