Pros

- amazon name on the cv - well paid for new grads

Cons

Cons: - Too much office politics. - Team leads are clearly unprepared and inexperienced. - Lack of support and transparency. - Lack of clear expectations, fake sense of urgency all the time - Some people lie to get more exposure; I'm sure that being hungry for "visibility" doesn't justify being a terrible teammate/person. If you end up in Amazon Fresh, try to switch to another team! There’s a huge turnover rate among brand specialists, and the managers are really bad at their job—super biased, leaving you wondering what they actually do. It's a team that reflects all the negative comments about Amazon's culture that you see online.

Pros

Easy work for good pay. Lots of career advancement opportunity. Very luxurious compared to other warehouses and very forgiving.

Cons

Not a lot of bathrooms and when you're being time tracked for productivity it can be very difficult to find a time to comfortably go.

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.
