Challenging but Rewarding

Pros

Freedom to carve out your own career path. Performance is monitored and rewarded appropriately. Culture of helpfulness and teamwork is heavily promoted.

Cons

You are somewhat left alone to be responsible for your own learning. While this can be good for some, others may struggle with the autonomy.

Best role of my career

Pros

Relaying the facts will sound like hyperbole, but I work with an amazing team of talented people who are a pleasure to work with. I enjoy my role, feel empowered to make suggestions (and people listen) and love the results my team delivers. For me, it's a great place to work with a great work/life balance.

Cons

It's a large, complex company, so expect a learning curve.

Pros

Within the AWS Org, I've been given full creative power to scope my team, build relationships with others in the org, and get involved in affinity groups and culture initiatives. I thrive in places that allow me the freedom to do what I want while still delivering on primary objectives, which is why I give AWS five stars. On top of the culture and freedom of movement, the pay and benefits are great!

Cons

hybrid working model. I strongly dislike coming into the office. I am neurodivergent and its distracting (noise, people coming and going) and the lights give me headaches every day. I work more productive hours at home than in the office but leadership continues to push the hybrid model.
