Pros

Good compensation with variable scheme Extremely profitable - growing business

Cons

Complete disregard for people, came back from parental leave only to find myself replaced by a junior member of the team and being handed over to a junior role. Reported the situation to HR who after 2 months of deliberating decided "there was no policy violation". The company is managed by robots and will get rid of you at the first chance. Praised are the people who work 16 hours per day and have no life outside work. AWS has nothing to do with Amazon, the leadership principles are not applied at all, except Customer Obsessions which equates to Sales really. It's full of poor managers coming from old school Sales machines ran by white men like HP, Oracle, Microsoft. Do not recommend to anyone.

Pros

Working in AWS open doors to work in better companies

Cons

Harassment No training received Low salaries, low increase due to inflation Not learning, almost every process is done automatically, you are not here to think. No progression in your career Overtime not paid No matter how good you are, you only need to follow the principles to have a good performance.
