Pros

Paid vacation, free lunch, 25 cent vending machines that go to charity, decent pay.

Cons

Transition from Zappos to Amazon difficult. No more free health insurance. Too many rules put in place. Management pushing endless numbers. a lot of unnecessary overtime, no air conditioning in one warehouse. Loss of culture and fun activities. Starts to drag on and you feel worn out by the end of the week. Anti-fatigue mats unsatisfactory.

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.
