Pros

Leadership position out of college Good people

Cons

Zero culture, no fun Unrealistic goals - nothing to work towards Small, yet stressful, tasks that don't seem to have a purpose No feedback or updates on performance Warehouse setting Amazon reels in recent college graduates, like myself, with a pretty signing bonus - yet, they make you pay it back if you decide it's not for you within your first year

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.
