      Pros

      - internal mobility- where you can ask to transfer to different org, even aws/retails orgs. Can also transition to become TPM if you're an SDE - free lunch (but quality is degrading, very high in sodium and highly processed) - amazon tooling. Basically using all builder tools amazon, directly using aws tools. - really smart peers. They have a high hiring bar.

      Cons

      - Constant reorgs which makes it terrible for promotion and career growth. - Top down AI mandate for the sake of AI adoption, in the name of boosting developer productivity and saving developer billing hours. - Layoffs when company profit was all time high. - Many consumer facing teams are stretched thin.

      Pros

      Audible is an Amazon company. I think as a whole, this company attracts people who are kind and fun spirited. Good product.

      Cons

      Disorganisation. Commute can be hard.

      Pros

      Your hours are very flexible as you just have to submit the first 15 minutes of the book by a certain date and then the final audiobook by a certain deadline.

      Cons

      This was a royalty share contract with no base pay and I only made about $70 total after many hours of work.
