Pros

Get to set your own schedule. The warehouse managers are pretty nice.

Cons

No direct phone number to contact for emergencies with your children/family and are not allowed to have your cell on you (which would be okay if they had a contact phone number) If you miss three consecutive shifts you are fired because you cannot even call if you are really sick or got in an accident and are stuck in a hospital. Get bumped up to an Ambassador with more responsibilities without increased wages. The HR are horrible and rude to you if you request accommodations for your mental health issues, probably because they are so young and think they are better than you (even if you have a college degree like I do). Amazon is horrible with breaks.

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.
