Pros

I love working here. People on the night shift are awesome, hours kind of are a drag but the pay, benefits and bonus helps level that out. I am thankful for my place in Amazon but would love to be able to do more for Amazon than allowed. To be honest, in some positions the pay far exceeds the job requirements and that has a benefit most jobs can not provide. Love that!

Cons

Communication is off with management and HR. Certain night A.M. doesnt take time to help with certain cituations, heard lots of complaints on him already. Part time Amazonians are eligable for VERY few job opportunities and Full time associates are few and far between. Would love to be able to try differant positions or areas of the place but the word "random" is a definition I dont believe they have down yet. Some P.A's are fraturnizing with the associates instead of doing their job. Can be distracting and leads to poor moral.

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.
