Business outlook
Pros
Getting into Amazon is like a dream come true. Exposure to other technologies.
Cons
You will become utterly burnt out. They add responsibility to you. Expect to be back stabbed by your colleagues and managers alike. Amazon will take you for every drop of blood you have. If management do not like you they will block your career path and make up every excuse not to move you forward. They are customer centric not employee centric. You are replaceable and their false security that they can keep replacing employees with new ones will make your head spin and demoralise you . Its a battery chicken farm. Expect to work over every public holiday. Christmas and Easter included with no thanks whatsoever. Managers do take these holidays though.
