Pros

i worked for SMX and I got converted to amazon at CVG3 in kentucky. People were aswome to work with, and the pay was pretty good. time off was semi convient. and if you were amazon blue badge you got what they call vcp pay, which is at the end of the month your second pay check.

Cons

Uh theres a lot of cons to go through that a lot of the others have already talked about. but my biggest problem that I've had there was the bs rate system, and they lied to us about how they judge the snow days by going through the node, with all the Kentucky plants and one night it was snowing real bad and they were talking about a lvl 3 snow emergency, which means we were stuck at work until it lowered but it nvr happened , but they wound up closing all the other plants because of the snow and friends and family that worked between the buildings passed the message to loved ones/ co-workers while they lied to us and told us they had no work.

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.
