Pros

+Free AWS accounts for experimentation +Learning or 20%project days - depends on the team +Good company values (leadership principles) +Work life balance is great - in PrimeVideo +Good office location - Liverpool Street Station

Cons

In short, there are no software engineers (at least in my ORG) here. Everyone is just a PM with a powerful calculator in their hands called Java. Amazon killed my passion towards software engineering. +Wrong implementation of leadership principles - very dependant on the team +No proper benefits (in UK) +No free food

Pros

You will work with some of the best engineers around. Good benefits and salary package. You'll always learn something new.

Cons

No work-life balance, they add a huge amount of bonus at the beginning which would eventually reduce your total salary in the following years
