Financially - Opal travel card claims for daily work commute - Phone claims - Amazon RSU - Competitive pay Work life balance - 6 weeks paternity leave - 14 weeks maternity leave - work from home option Work culture - very understanding - culturally diverse

Cons

- occasional time crunch where you need to put in more work, rare - big organization with some international dependencies, response can be somewhat slow. - Sydney office does not have as many opportunities as the USA office. - still lack gender diversity but it is getting better - unlike some other tech giants, we are not pampered as much (Frugality).
