      Pros

      Innovation and hard work is recognized. Amazon will promote quickly and compensate well. The pace is unbelievably quick and makes good or timely communication next to impossible. The lack of communication is one of the company's weak points. The atmosphere of the company is mostly positive and encouraging. Personal and group recognition is common.

      Cons

      The downside to Amazon is the "slowest gazelle" concept. The company is always looking to identify the bottom 10% and will not rest until that bottom percentile is identified. Most organizations have performance issues but this process in Amazon incites fear and lack of trust. It is designed to get the most out of people but burnout or the constant stress results in high turnover
