1. Good stock growth, so compensation going up.

Cons

1. Bad Management in few teams. It is all about empire building. Now amazon is growing too much, hence it has become difficult for SVPs to keep tab on it. 2. PIP issues. Forced curve and hence good people being managed out. 3. 0 benefits

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.
