Pros
This is the most innovative environments I have ever been in. When choosing between Amazon and another tech company a few years back there was some bad press out about the company. This bad press actually motivated me to accept the offer at Amazon. To me this bad press was intriguing. Since working here I have found that the bad press i had read was not at all true for me. I always feel empowered by my team and fulfilled by my work.
Cons
There is a lot of ambiguity and the environment is fast. If you are a person that likes to know exactly what they are going to do everyday and needs firm structure and guidance, you will not like it here. Amazonians are encouraged to think for themselves and not be babysat.
