Pros

-When the stock is going up, it's an alright place to work. -Customer obsession is generally real. -People hold themselves accountable. -There's (usually) the ability to move teams/roles. -You'll always have AWS on your resume, making you more marketable.

Cons

-Everyone is just going after the next Level and willing to throw anyone under the bus to get there. -Instead of using feedback to improve, they just get rid of the person giving the feedback. -Your job duties may be X, but they'll put 4X the work on you because they know you won't quit. -The Partner org is basically run by a muppets and an overly-influential divorcee. -There are politics in every company, but AWS takes pride in it's toxicity.

Pros

Great team when you have a manager and full team that works well and collaborates well. Stock is great. And you know when youre doing well, the pay increase is roughly the same as everyone else.

Cons

Low perks compared to other FAANG companies and most teams have high turn over

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.
