Pros

- 3 months Onboarding Program for new hires, which is done very professionally. You get to learn the Amazon way of working, culture, processes etc. - Self-driven autonomous teams that can build, grow , work hard and have fun while achieving KPI's - Long term more important than short term - International character (you get to work with people from all over the world) - Be part of the most innovative Tech company in the world - Huge growth potential as Amazon prefers for it's own employees to internally grow/get to higher positions - Benefits and salary is great! Higher end of the market - You get stocks, and other allowances - Focus on DEI - Informal and open culture - People Management (vs Micro Management)

Cons

- Amazon is a large and complex organization. It will take to find your way internally. - Not for sales people who work 40 hours a week

Pros

Ambitious projects if you're in the right team. Typically great team-mates. Don't believe the memes, the ppl are not back stabbing jerks but are overall genuinely nice. Not constrained by budgets when building cool things. Tools while sometimes clunky are powerful.

Cons

Schizophrenic lack of focus, entire teams get split, merged and upended multiple times a quarter. Some product managers are disconnected from reality. It didn't use to be the case, the PM-Ts were previously top notch. You're pushed to vibe code everything. Established products with loyal customers are getting neglected. Newer VP level leaders don't seem to know what they are doing. Veteran OG VP level leaders are either leaving in droves or seem stressed or checked out.
