      Pros

      It is nice to work at AWS Berlin because of the work atmosphere. Colleagues are nice, manager is nice. It is not a "pressure" work, it is an enjoyable work,

      Cons

      It is very difficult to get promoted. Even with important achievements (like, for example, writing a patent for the company introducing a novel algorithm) it is very hard to get promoted.

      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.
