Pros

Amazon is a fast-paced environment where all partners are provided the ability to suggest and implement changes to improve services provided to customers everyday. Decisions are made quickly based on what is best for the customer and not just on what a specific leader recommends. You also have the opportunity to truly guide your own career path, pursuing new areas that you find most challenging. Given the incredible projections for growth, there is also considerable job security for the foreseeable future.

Cons

The nature of the constant change does create considerable ambiguity in both individual role structure and responsibilities. You need to be comfortable with constant change and able to adapt quickly.

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.
