Pros

I work at Amazon Web Services, not necessarily Amazon.com. The workplace is much more relaxed and easy-going than what you've heard about Amazon in general. We are not micro-managed, and the employees have the freedom to govern themselves in certain instances. Good benefits and great job security.

Cons

Haven't been here long enough to really get any downsides. I guess vacation/time-off could be better. Maxes out at 2 weeks for newbies and 3-weeks if you've been there a year or two.

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.
