Pros

Amazon has consistently surpassed expectations and is one of the most exciting places to work for. As an individual Amazon greatly empowers the employees for decision making.

Cons

As a company Amazon has only recently started to really pay attention to invest in professional growth and career development. The amount of resource it spends on professional growth for employees is below the bar.

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.
