Pros

Exciting time to work here. Very talented group of individuals working hard to detonate e-commerce in Mexico.

Cons

The company hires only the best for a good reason... they rather have few people manage entire businesses than entire teams like in other companies.

Pros

I have learned new things every week. This is not a cliché, it is my actual experience. I am also enjoying being dared, challenged. Amazon competes against itself and so do I. There's no joy competing against others since once you beat them you end up being demotivated. Here I can work to give the best of me and learn how to increase my capabilities. I joined Amazon as a Sr. Vendor Manager after being a Marketing Director at LG Electronics for 4 years and a Brand Manager at P&G for 8 years. Amazon has fulfilled my expectations which was moving into a company with people smarter than me and where I constantly learn new things without being bored about more of the same.

Cons

The level (bar) is strict and it always moves higher. This is also a "hands-on" company in which you actually get to do the job. It doesn't matter if you are a manager you are a doer. I like that but some people are not used to it, specially if they have climbed up the ladder to a Sr. Manager or Director position somewhere else.

Pros

Competitive salary, you get to work in an international environment and you learn a lot to improve process integrating Tech solutions

Cons

Lack of leadership, there is no definition of goals and expectations, the so called ambiguity on Amazon is a consecuence of leadership and structure underlying issues that have grown simultaneously with some areas. Really difficult to fix without committed and strong leaders, this causes confusion and lack of motivation.
