Pros

Salary, Hikes during promotion, World class campus for work

Cons

The expectation would be that you would work for more than 8 hours. There are n number of leadership skills that are used as weapons for your review to show where you are lacking and they would be least bothered on the skills where you are exceeding. They select random people and put them in PIP ( try searching employee reviews in Quora ) and they ensure that his / her career is screwed up in Amazon (as the employee can not apply for internal roles and if he resigns Amazon will never hire you back).

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.
