      Pros

      - The opportunity for e-commerce scale is unmatched except at Amazon - High performers are given generous compensation packages - Work life balance is a key value of leadership

      Cons

      - There are truly incompetent people still around, though that appears to be changing - Matrix org structure has killed any hope of doing anything innovative unless you can carve out a team outside of that structure - If you don't play the political game, you'll be passed over for promotions, etc.

      Pros

      Relaxing culture. family first. Stock performance is generally good for the recent two years and huge benefit if you're eligible for ESPP. Stable product with large customer base means you get opportunity to work on project with real impact.

      Cons

      1. Blind push for AI and leadership expect unrealistic efficiency improvement 2. Layoff every year in Feb (2024, 2025, 2026) and sometimes can feel the tension in team 3. Legacy tech stack with isolated and fragile infrastructure. Developer friction is a real pain. You get random infra down every once a while and internal support becomes even worse since they started offshoring to LCOL area in 2025. 4. Hiring freeze in San Jose... just expect more layoff coming up + frequent meetings at night / early morning across regions
