Pros

+ Limitless opportunity. If you want it, work hard and you can get it. + Growth & Change - We've doubled in size in the last 4 years through developing great products and services. With that kind of growth you get to try just about anything you want.

Cons

- Amazon doesn't have a great focus on the satisfaction of their employees. Thus, benefits are light and you should expect much from the company (other than great comp) to keep you satisfied.

Pros

Definitely good program as an intern. Lots of networking and learning opportunities. Give you a good exposure about the internal workings of this consumer-centric, often-fragile company.

Cons

I choose corporate housing and it turns out to be a huge amount of taxable income (albeit non-cash) on the W2. Called back HR and she wouldn't give detailed breakdown. The benefits appeared great to intern but the taxing is huge! (I have other income as a grad student so the benefits turn out to be costly).
