Pros

It is great in tech, research, analytics, data science and product/marketing - No stress, high pay (sometimes even higher than Amazon!) and you don't have to show any tangible deliverables. Leadership is not technically sound and they do not ask probing questions, so you can get away with doing minimal work and staying under the radar. This is why a lot of the mid level (L7) - upper level management (L8) never leave the company and coast around. The company also rarely fires people, so you can relax without any stress for many years if you want to. Culture is quite relaxed and perks are great. Free food and other benefits.

Cons

It takes a few minutes to read through all the reviews and two things stand out - 1. Poor leadership 2. Lack of growth or product innovation. It is a great place to work if you want to spend time with your family or kids, do minimal work and get paid without any stress. If you want to grow in your career and be a respected leader at some point, this is definitely not the place to work.

Pros

Audible is an Amazon company. I think as a whole, this company attracts people who are kind and fun spirited. Some who come from other big tech companies may think us as nerdy or quiet but I think it’s the lack of toxic compatibility that you tend to see at those other companies. I purely enjoy working with my colleagues and the work that I do, which I can hardly say about the other big tech companies I worked at. Free lunch and commuter/parking benefit

Cons

5-day RTO. The headquarter is in Newark, NJ. The commute can be hard for some.
