Pros

Working at Amazon was a great learning experience in a very fast paced environment. Customer obsession in high demand by filling customer orders & a constant push to get the job done.

Cons

HR Department at the warehouse I was at is horrible and needs to be revamped. As an area manager, you're treated as a grunt, managing grown adults that have more power than you do as a manager. Employees run the warehouse & if you are an area manager, then you had better look out, you'll have a target on your back regardless of how good you are to the associates.

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.
