Pros

Amazon is a great company to work for. I think the casual business environment really increases employee productivity - there is no judgment, you can throw on a pair of jeans and head to work so long as you are raising the bar. You are expected to be a go-getter, and be able to handle ambiguity. This company is meant for those who want to continuously be challenged and provide actionable insight.

Cons

Sometimes you have to work long days.

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.
