      Pros

      AWS might be good. But you feel like you're always stressed out even when there is no work. The PIP culture is draining and you feel enslaved by their harsh policies and sometimes feels quite dehumanizing. Maybe thats why not many people stay for long.

      Cons

      Lack of empathy with employees. Frupidity culture. Slow, politics, no more competent engineers as in the previous decade.

      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.
