      Pros

      - AWS is a big company, and its easy enough to transfer teams internally if there's a better fit for you. - competitive pay and benefits - lots of opportunities to work in fast paced, professional environments, and gain experience

      Cons

      Really depending on the team you're on, some are better than others. - terrible work/life balance - oncall nightmares - 5 days a week in office. They only reimburse 50% parking

      Pros

      Ambitious projects if you're in the right team. Typically great team-mates. Don't believe the memes, the ppl are not back stabbing jerks but are overall genuinely nice. Not constrained by budgets when building cool things. Tools while sometimes clunky are powerful.

      Cons

      Schizophrenic lack of focus, entire teams get split, merged and upended multiple times a quarter. Some product managers are disconnected from reality. It didn't use to be the case, the PM-Ts were previously top notch. You're pushed to vibe code everything. Established products with loyal customers are getting neglected. Newer VP level leaders don't seem to know what they are doing. Veteran OG VP level leaders are either leaving in droves or seem stressed or checked out.
