Business Outlook
Pros
Amazon wants their employees to work on projects where they can use their best strengths. Because Amazon has so many teams working on so many different products, you can find a great fit for your combination of strengths. Most people who work here are bright, hardworking and of good character.
Cons
Most people who work here have high standards, especially of themselves, so people feel a lot of pressure from within. This can lead to people being a bit negative. In a large organization and at the huge scale of Amazon, it is difficult to take a big idea from conception to deployment. It is hard to know who owns what, how to navigate the organization and inject a new idea into an existing budgeted and approved roadmap.
