Pros

Amazon allows you flexibility in implementing solutions, you are constantly learning something new, the company changes and improves in a quick pace and has a very positive vibe. People here are different, more vibrant, more informal (in a positive way) and the career opportunities are great. Never thought that after 50 I would feel so motivated to work.

Cons

By far, my main complaint is the lack of proper management training; to be fair it is getting much better as I write this review, but is far from the ideal for such a huge company. I also work longer hours than I would wish, but part of the fault is my own; that being said, I don't imagine a manager working less than 50/55 hrs a week.

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.
