Pros

Amazon definitely has many smart people. The on-boarding training is good as are the leadership principles. However there are so many new people the culture is all over the place.

Cons

Overworked - most work on weekends, have little vacation time, are overworked. Its a culture where you wont make lasting friendships or love or be loyal the company. Benefits are not as good as other tech companies or consulting. Sales team is not diverse.

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.
