Pros

Coming from MSFT as a Program Manager, I find Amazon's focus on the customer to be an amazing and generally fulfilling experience. - Generally work / life balance is OK, with peaks and valleys (peaks near launch obviously). - Salary is better than I had before, so no complaints - Health is OK (though I had Premiera @ MSFT, so hard to compete w/that) - Stock is good - for now.

Cons

- Commute is OK if bus, poor if driving (I live on the East side). I do miss the Connector & its WIFI, though I get by with tethering to my phone - Overall compensation system is confusing -> if I do really well one year I may not get that much @ review time in stock b/c AMZN looks at the overall compensation w/your existing grants included..? - Promotion model seems to require 100% approval from everyone who can comment (including folks that did not work w/the person).

Great company, but not always a great place to work

Business Outlook

Pros

It's great being an Amazon customer Amazon is an interesting place to work and a great brand Technology is often cutting edge General talent level of employees is very high A good place for people who want to 'make things happen' A good place to learn

Cons

No always great being an Amazon employee Quality of Amazon mgrs, directors and VPs is very uneven (some great, some are simply terrible) Product focus is often short-term (get something shipped, and we'll fix it later..) Employees are treated a bit like contractors (little real investment in employees) Amazon benefits are worse than nearly all comparable companies On-going financial incentives are heaped on the top of the pyramid- not the rank and file (negotiate hard before accepting a job) Amazon rarely helps an outside cause, the community or a charity Amazon is not particularly concerned about who it steps on as a consequence of its ambition
