Pros

- Culture is unique: astonishingly customer focus, performance and results driven, data based to its very core, objective and fast paced, demanding while still being supportive, you feel part of a team, and your teammates are basically all-star level in their fields - Growth: lots of opportunities for lateral and upward moves due to both geographical and organic business growth, there is definitely room for taking responsibility and ownership of your work - Opportunities seem endless with the way Amazon has been investing, who knows what will you be working on in 2,5,10 years? That's exciting.

Cons

- Benefits: although pay is competitive, Amazon's frugal policy makes a lot of other benefits basically non-existent. Don't expect a barista in your office, or a ton of fun company events. This place is all about "work hard", "have fun" is often missing. - The fast-paced and sometimes hectic nature of a massive business growing at this pace makes the work environment and your priorities often feeling hectic. If you are not comfortable with constant change and if you are not flexible in how, where, and with whom you work - this place is not for you.
