      Pros

      You get to learn a lot due to amazon scale in terms of services if you can be curious and learn how to navigate chaos become accountable and learn how to highlight at the right time and level your work or blockers.

      Cons

      Not much clarity on prioritisation , Anti - Agile pattern is embedded deeply causes a lot of hidden work to be done to achieve deliverables if you try to maintain high standards, management not have enough depth on how to streamline and protect their team from chaos and build a high performing collaborative bureaucracy free AGILE team without silos.

      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.
