Tough place to work, but worth it

Program manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Endless opportunities to work on interesting, cutting-edge projects. Tons of autonomy, ownership, and decision-making responsibilities given to even the youngest employees. Ability to change jobs frequently without having previous industry experience.

Cons

Very little transparency regarding HR-related issues (e.g. promotions, performance reviews, compensation). Rough promotion process that requires employees to take on higher-level work for at least 6 months before being rewarded with higher-level compensation and titles.

Business Outlook

Pros

- Incredibly interesting & fast paced - Innovation at it's best - Full ownership opportunities and autonomy - Great campus and lots of small, curated working spaces - Open dog enviornment - Casual dress and culture - Competitive pay & total compensation

Cons

- Fast pace means heavy workloads - Leveling and progressing is difficult once inside - Total compensation will consider stock your income, something to keep in mind - People who raise the bar means they also pride themselves on working too much. You've gotta go in knowing this and not succumb to it.

Business Outlook

Pros

Amazon provides some of the best opportunity to work across the globe. I live in a smaller city, but am able to work virtually on projects bigger than I ever imagined. It truly is amazing and I'm lucky to have a great team of colleagues.

Cons

It is challenging for me to know that I am compensated significantly less than my colleagues because I live in a different area. I wish we offered internal promotions and external hires similar compensation packages.
