Pros

Good pay compared to Tier 2 companies, but not as competitive as other Tier 1 companies

Cons

- Lack of vision. Customer obsession etc is cultish ways to navigate politics in the company, nobody really cares about customers anymore. - Innovations have come to a standstill, it is extremely difficult to retain top talent in this toxic culture - Managers rule your life when you're working in Amazon, I have seen way too many times managers finger pointing ICs in the team to shift blame of them not delivering enough ROI - This company is not good for your mental health. If you have a choice, choose ANYTHING else over Amazon

Pros

Cross training that helps for faster growth and more experience.

Cons

Sometimes you gotta hurry and find equipment or pit equipment before others snag them and leave you with the “bad” ones. That take forever to get repaired.

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.
