Pros

Amazon is a great way to break into the industry if you can get a foot in the door. They will teach you quickly by force to learn what you need to be successful in tech.

Cons

They have very poor HR Policies and benefits. I'm not talking about the no free food or whatever. I'm talking about medical leave and other things important to many people longer term. You should use them as a stepping stone for the rest of FAAMNG

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.
