Pros
Despite all the bad press, I really enjoyed my time at Amazon. Company's culture is peculiar and demands a shift on your mindset, some can make the transitions, others don't, which is understandable. Salary was above industry average, great flexibility.
Cons
Unfortunately, the company has already reached its peak and all the innovation and true leadership that made the company great was starting to leave for other things, so I started to see teams and first line managers that were okay, but nothing different than any other big company. Well at least one can say that Jeff Bezos himself said one that the company will fail, so you gotta respect the transparency.
