Pros

The best reason to work at Amazon is that it gives you the ability to control your own destiny. If you are assertive and hard working then you will go places, just keep up the hard work and people will notice.

Cons

There are some issues with work-life balance for some employees. Although hard work does speak loudly, there is a level of politics that still goes on that is distracting, demoralizing and old school business.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
