Pros

- Organization is flat and everyone is a leader - Opinions are valued and I have opportunities to impact thousands - Chance to work with an amazing team - Most decisions can be made without going through a lengthy approval process - Modern design tools (like Adobe Creative Cloud, Articulate , Microsoft Office, etc. available - Flexibility and ability to work from home most days (even after Covid) - Lots of growth opportunities - Great pay - Inclusivity is a top goal - Opportunities to volunteer within the community (outside of Amazon)

Cons

- Working as cross-functional teams means lots of meetings! - Amazon is huge, with lots of small organizations living within it, meaning it can be difficult to find information or connect with people outside of your team - Never enough time in the day to get everything you need to get done, done

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.
