Pros

Insurance is one of the main pros. they give you stock every year! 401K is a good benefit as well. Get to meet alot of people. Make tons of friends if you wish to interact with them.

Cons

Lack of communication Unfairness towards others Does not like to work with you when your family needs you the most Pay raises suck. Been with Amazon for over 5 years and I am topped out with pay Does not take into consideration of cost of living Pay taxes on gift cards they they give you for gifts, then get taxed again when you use it. One gets fired due to the point system and they can turn around and come back with a temp agency!!!

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.
